Sittin' on the dock of the bay


Sittin' on the dock of the bay, originally uploaded by sarah ....

Gyp, literally, sitting on the dock, at the (Bertha) Bay in Waterton Lakes National Park. We went for a nice hike today with a few pit stops - near water of course.

It was the dogs first dock experience, and this was a floating style dock. Gyp was the first to dive in, followed by Kaleb who had to outdo her in flat-coat style by catapulting off of it ....

There was no way for them to get back on since the dock was raised off the water, and the shore line here was a raised rock ledge, so we had to grab them by the collar and lift them back up. We thought this would deter them, NOPE, they kept going back for more.

NOTE: Jane looked over the edge for fish, she thought about diving in, but common sense prevailed.

P.S. Are dogs were never mistaken for bears on this hike :)

It sounds like your dogs had a great time in the mountains.

What?!? No one thought your dogs were big, furry bears? Bolsey will have to go along with you next time to show Kaleb and Gyp how to do a black bear impression and Jane could be a mini polar bear!
