Simply Sharrvelous

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.

Mattie once again showing her fearlessness on the causeway as the water washes over it.  She really loves going out there and her footing’s getting much better on the rocks.

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 has a habit of exploring other people’s entrances.  We do keep her out of their houses, but here you can see her sniffing the flowers at the entrance to an apartment block.

Mattie out on the far side of the Rambla again, just posing for pictures.  She does that so well!

Mattie wading in the water again. I’ve never seen another dog so in love with it.

Mattie resting in the saltgrass after going across the causeway.  She even likes sitting and contemplating the waves from here.

Mattie walking happily and confidently on the slippery rocks.
