Lolly

I know, I know - I've always maintained that I am disinclined to play with anyone or anything except for kong-on-a-rope. (Oh... and Shanti, of course.) Well, today at McInnis, where I went for the express purpose of chasing my kong, then go patrolling for squirrels, I ran into Lolly at the water cooler. "Wanna play?" she seemed to offer.
I'm a sucker for puppies. Lolly is just nine months old and well... couldn't keep her paws to herself and besides, she was a kong thief!

So the time was right. I had to summon up my "play" stance and attitude and then I was ready to go at it.


Oh, she knew how to engage all the right tactics! I think I have a new buddy!

I was pretty tired from kong chasing, but summoned up some energy for this gymnastic maneuver.



Time out...

For about a second...

This little girl is good!
Think you can get away from me? Think again pup!

Haaaarrrr!

Gotcha!!!!!


Next Tuesday at 4?

Okay bye.

Nothing like a good doggy play mate. Marge has a Spaniel friend, too! I love the play bow picture.

Sammie, I hope you will participate in our festivities on MargeBlog on June 29. You can ask your mommy about it and let us know. :)

My gosh, your photos are absolutely remarkable! You were able to capture the moment and at the same time place the right words exactly where they should be. Loved it.

Can't believe Sammie left the kong aside for some puppy rollin'!

Oh Sammie - what FANTASTIC action shots of you playing!!! My human was squealing over them - she loves action shots and is always trying to get some that aren't blurry! My favourie is the one of you jumping, with your paw sticking out (I think it's No.3).
I think Lolly is a fantastic playmate and I can't wait for you guys to meet again so I can see more photos!

Lexi said...

It looks like you had a fun time with your new friend. But I don't like kong thieves........I met one at my puppy training last night. I don't mind sharing but that is just too much when they won't even give it back ! Have a fun day.
