RUNNING

The heat has cooled down a bit and the humidity quite a lot. So yesterday evening I grabbed Doc and Conley and took them out to my friend's house, where she has a very secure couple of acres fenced off for her dogs. Conley doesn't really RUN-- he kind of ambles quickly. He can run. He can run very fast, but there didn't seem to be any reason to do so. The only problem with this place is: there are NO trees.
Well I take it back, she has planted trees along one fenceline, but they do not offer shade.
But Doc, Doc runs. And I love to watch him run, so guess what? You get to watch, too.

Well he doesn't run all the time.



But once he starts

He keeps

Right on


Running

Right at you

And beyond.
 
And his Buddy, Conley

Does his Basset best

To....keep......................up...........but............................

But (no pun intended) really can't.
 
 
And  Doc is off again
 
But not for quite so long this time


And finally
stops.
 
And I am adding one picture because I like it. I am not sure what happened to the lighting but I like it.
 
Mouse? Mole? Vole? Stick?

    Short vs. long legs... Nice pics! I had two bassets with normal short legs. Leia's mom has normal bassetty legs but Leia has daddy's long legs. We also call her Leapin' Leia! She loves running with her 2 legged brother.
