Dogs In the Sun

The weather here has been very unusual and record breaking lately. Though Winnipeg is known for freezing cold, HORRIBLE winters, our summers are usually very hot and sunny and beautiful and nothing but blue skies. Lately, though, we have had torrential downpours (causing a minor flooding in our basement) and nothing but grey skies and black clouds.

However, we had a very small window of the promise of summer on Sunday. And so, as we had an open house, my Mom and I went over to her partner's house so we had somewhere to let the dogs run wild.

My Mom's partner, J, has a humongous back yard. His dog Baxter, a 100+ pound mutt loves our two girls (Norwegian Elkhound litter sisters) and so there is nothing nicer than watching them all frolic and go crazy with so much grass and space.

Sadly, one of our dogs, Skye, has primary glaucoma. One of her eye's has been removed and the other is blind. She is a little more timid, and usually spends her time inside Js house than running around. I'll need to find more pictures of her to share!

Below are pictures of Ginger, our dog, and Baxter.

Enjoy!
