Entertainment at the pond has been first rate lately.At first I couldn't believe what this dog was doing. He kept walking up the narrow beach looking for something -- a dog on a mission. RinTinTin and Lassie had nothing on this hunter. (You all remember those classic canines, don't you? Maybe not.) As you can see, every so often he poked his face into the water. What was he trying to see? (shrugging my shoulders)
Turns out he was fishing for minnows. No, he wasn't eating them. He just enjoyed touching them with his nose or paws and watching them rush away.
And here he is trying to find any minnows that might be hiding in the very shallow water.

That is so comical. Look at him with his face in the water. Great shots. MB
ReplyDeleteI am so happy for the dog who was able to do his thing without being told not to. LOL
ReplyDeleteHappy dog! That pond makes me want to wade right in myself.

ReplyDeleteI's with Abe, dogs should have the freedom to do as they please. He does look a happy chappy. These are lovely critter shots.

ReplyDeleteOh how funny! I love the first shot with his face in the water -- the reflection is perfect!
ReplyDeleteYour photos have wonderful colour and sharpness of detail. These of the dog are very nice!
ReplyDeleteEG: Now that's a dog close to the Fishing Guys heart. Could he herd up some minnows for me, our local bait shop went out of business. He could be very helpful.
ReplyDeleteI don't think you could find anyone who didn't love Rin-Tin-Tin snd Lassie.
How fun! These photos really made me smile, and I love the reflection in the water on that first photo.
ReplyDeletemarvelous shots of the dog and his mission searching for minnows! Love the pictures, EG! :)
ReplyDeleteSo he didn’t get any?
ReplyDeleteHe needs to learn that trick of the bears and the salmon runs…
He is a cutie! You've captured him wonderfully!!
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos of your beautiful (and, perhaps, unique) dog. How much fun it must be to watch him hunt for minnows to play with!
