July 2012 Pets.ca photo challenge - Pets keeping cool

[marko]

Anyone have any ideas for this month's photo challenge?

Have we done "Pets keeping cool", yet? Seems appropriate today.

That sounds like a good one for summer (despite it being cloudy and drizzly in Vancouver today).

I like it - Pets keeping cool it is - merging suggestion posts now. Thx!

Hi members!

The photo challenge this month is pets keeping cool.

Ok then who will post first?

[HuntleysMom]

I'll play, here's Huntley trying desperately to get his friend Buddy to help him out of the pool:

Awesome, way to start it off Huntleysmom!

Not sure how cool Huntley felt, but that sure is a great pic!! Did Buddy save him in the end, I hope?

Dusty has discovered that water isn't the only way to stay cool...

Love that water set Soundy!!!

This is my niece Moora chillin' with Carmy

Two good lookin' ladies hangin' out poolside!! Cute shot, Marko!

You can just hear Carmy going, "AAAaaaaaahhhhhhh......"

Have to agree with Soundy, Carmy did look like she was saying AAHHHHHH.
Soundy great pics at White Rock, where on the beach did you go? Last time I was down there I got in hell for having my dogs out of the car pretty much, they don't even let you walk on the sidewalks with them let alone get near the beach! (This wasn't even in the summer, but off season.) You must have been well off the beaten path. Haven't gone back down there in years now for that reason alone sadly. Well that and now that we've left Richmond it's a lot farther out.

We go to what's generally known as "East Beach", on the SFN lands, so the city bylaw weenies have no control. There's a gravel parking lot behind the WAG, it's $6 for all day parking (vs. $3/hr. on the street) and when it's busy they actually have attendants making sure people park properly (bring cash though!). At low tide, you've got probably a quarter-mile of sand and tidal pools before you hit the ocean, and the little guys really seem to prefer running on the soft sand.

As for "far"... hey, we're coming from Pitt Meadows - it's an easy half-hour drive via the Golden Ears Bridge, straight down 176th to 8th, and a quick jaunt over - the WAG is the first thing when you come out of the wooded areas, before you have to make your way along the beachfront crawl.
