Toot first experience at the beach

Forgot to post these images of Toot at the beach.  After Roxy passing away.  We decided that a trip would be suffice.  I didn't know exactly how Toot was going to react toward the beach because she doesn't enjoy taking a bath.  To my surprised she was enjoying herself.  I can't wait to take her back.

I was really surprised how well she behave in the car.  It took us about four hours to get to Jacksonville FL




and then we arrived at the beach.  


she really loved the beach and acted as if she was just so natural in it.  

by the second day she was swimming along the waves.  I was amazed how well she quickly adapted.



I think she enjoyed herself more than any of us.





by the third day we used the 20ft lease so she could really enjoy the beach.  We visited three different beach in three days.  

What to do after your dog lost its friend

I was distraught after loosing one of our dog, Roxy.  So I knew my other dog Toot was having the same emotion or probably worst.  Roxy was her sister, playmate and someone she can identify with.  So, I wanted to find a way to help Toot through her grievance.  I decided to add a routine to her daily schedule.  We started walking in the morning for at least 30 minutes to anhour.  And I think because of this routine, it helps us both.  She's finally moping less and playing more.
