A much needed lake visit was in order yesterday so Gambler and Nellie went along for some swimming for fun and fitness. Even know it was just for fun as both dogs were retrieving their puller toy, jumping off the pier and just swimming around at their leisure they were burning calories and getting fit.
Puller fun.
They had some lily pad fun.
Ended with some pier jumping, even 10 3/4 old Nellie jumped off and had fun doing it.
Today Gambler and I are off training once again. He has missed it all week. John and Gambler will be going to another hunt test this weekend and let’s hope he passes so he can get his title and end his weekends for AKC hunt tests this year.
The puppies have a hugh thank you to give out! Yesterday they received their first overseas mail. The package came all the way from France and it came before the puppies went to their new home. It was from the one and only Easy Rider! He is such a caring guy and his staff is pretty great also mailing this stuff out!
and as you can see Easy the black puppy is starting his disrespect early! That’s your favorite.
I would also like to thank each and everyone of you for reading my post yesterday and for all your sweet comments. I read them all and it really helped me out after this tragedy. You all are great and I’m glad to call you my friends!

What awesome lake photos, the furkids really do love the water. We can see it in their eyes because they have smiles in them. The little ones are so cute, soon they’ll be tearing those new toys to bits and growling at each other 🙂 ahhhhhhhhh puppy growls~
That swimming looks like so much fun, even Mom wants to jump in! Great summer exercise!
I love it to see this leaps from the pier… G-man you look impressing :o) I’m glad La Poste was as fast as … well let’s say a snail with roller skates . I saw the black pup, no wonder that Easy said it’s his favorite :o)
Looks like some great summer fun mixed with exercise – the best kind. Love seeing the pups – growing so fast!
I bet the swimming trip was super fun, and well needed too! How awesome you got those goodies from your pal!! My thoughts are still with you through all of this xoxo
ღ husky hugz ღ frum our pack at Love is being owned by a husky!
I don’t think anyone would argue that your dogs aren’t fit! Good luck on the hunt tests this weekend.
Sometimes you just have to get out, forget the world and enjoy yourself. Well done.
The photo of the lily pad attack is so funny. Swimming is a great way to beat the heat.
Love the water pictures. The dogs look like they are having so much fun!
The puppies are so darn cute! I’m going to hate to see them go to their new homes. Loved the swim photos and the dock diving! Looks SO refreshing!
Yay for water fun! Definitely a fun activity pups of all ages can enjoy since it’s so gentle on the joints!
The dogs look like they are having a blast, the photos are so good! All work is no fun for anyone even us dogs. We went back and read the post about the loss of the little puppy as we had missed it. Love Dolly
Pressies for the Chessies! ♥ I love Easy, he is so funny.
Gorgeous pictures again and what a lovely video….bless their little soft cotton socks..you know we have been thinking of you all and know that we send our continued love and hugs ..Bev xxxxx
Our boys love the puller too! Love all the lake photos!
Easy and his staff are the best, aren’t they?
I wish we had a pier the dogs could try jumping off….it sure looks like fun!
Good luck to Gambler and John this weekend!
Hi Y’all!
What fantastic photos! Thanks for reminding my Human why her last 2 dogs, both Chessies, have been 9 months and 14 months respectively (Candy, then me).
Y’all come on by,
Hawk aka BrownDog
A dog and water is very similar to a cat and a box.
It was so nice of Easy to send stuff to the pups! It looks like the dogs had fun at the lake and you got some wonderful pictures.
