Young Stanley and I did what we needed to do this morning - we joined human and dog friends on Sullivan's Island for a walk.
I always went to Sullivan's with Wood - and while it was sad to be there without her, it felt good to be back on the beach in the sun, a much preferred and quieter beach now that it is November. Stanley felt compelled to jump into the deepening tidal pool and go for a swim, which I must confess made me hold my breath for a few minutes, until he decided to turn around and head back for the closer shoreline.
Stanley is now sleeping, still salty and damp. Ahhhh...dog joy.
dont you just love the way dogs love the beach!My JRT Molly hunts , swims and runs !
If you like dogs at the beach , you might enjoy my new photography book Salty Dogs. It is over 112 photos of 39 breeds of dogs enjoying the beach, you can see it at amazon.com

Jean: Your book looks wonderful - such happy dogs! I try to head to the beach with a dog or two at least one morning of the weekend - their happiness there is contagious.
Kim: Yep.
