These two pictures were taken as Mattie came over a rise with the sun behind her. Doesn’t she look cute?

When you see her in pictures like this one, especially the first, you understand why people think she’s a bear. But she’s a Sharr, my Sharr, and I love her.

Two pictures of Mattie leading with her nose. I think she’s got one of the best sniffers in the world.


So she’s not quite Michael Jackson, but she was dancing!

These pictures are of Mattie playing hide and seek with a big tree on the beach side of the Rambla. It’s a large, parklike area with a lot of use.

Mattie pulled me out on the causeway during the tide – no keeping her back, not even the scary stretch.
And here is a set of her pawprints on the beach. I think they look cute.
The tide was coming in during this walk, but it didn’t stop Mattie from dragging me onto the causeway and exploring the water.


And sitting next to the water bowl, too. Both are good happy Mattie pictures.

Mattie lounging on the sofa and being silly. She just flips over onto her back sometimes and stays there sleeping. Silly puppy!
