Kidaddle to the Dogs' Day Out

Well the pups won out. Dogs' Day Out is apparently a twice yearly event - once every spring and autumn - and boy did the pups have spring in their step. Lake Gininderra foreshore was the venue and the gundogs made the most of the water. We enjoyed flyball, sled dogs, races and a competition for the best trick.

We took a picnic and gave the six year old the opportunity to pat as many dogs as she could in two hours - great when we are not in a position to have one of our own. It also gave us the opportunity to check out heaps of breeds for the day when we do decide to commit ... have to say the black labs left a tear in my eye, reminding me of my favourite boy Blue from my teenage years.

A nice simple outing with lots of nice simple fun to be had: check it out next Autumn.
