Crazy racing with the girl next door, one of my girlfriends, is so much fun. Yesterday when Olivia and I came back from sniff practice she was in the yard and the three of us started racing the fence line.
The weather went from almost a hundred degrees on Wednesday to sixties Thursday. It feels so good and it also energizes us. We had a lot of energy to do some good chasing with my big Leonberger girlfriend.
It all happened really quickly, so Mom couldn’t get her camera settings ready in time. She had to use auto mode which she hates just to make sure she got some shots. They are not as good as she would like, but she got action.
Olivia and I both do our hunting calls when we run FastCAT and when we chase, thus the open mouths as we go after my girl.
We had a bit of a pile up when we reached the end of the fence line, but no worries, we sorted things out. No one was injured in the small crash.
Down on the other end of the fence line, I had some alone time with the girl next door under the apple tree. We both like to eat the fallen apples but our parents tell us not to.
Now back to some more racing. It’s super fun since all three of us just love to run. Running is better with friends.
The fun started in a second and poof, the fun was over. I am left standing all alone wondering what happened. Now that it is cooler out, I hope we can race the fence more. Have a fun weekend!
I’m joining my friends at Living Laughing and Barking in Our Backyard for their Nature Friday blog hop.
Racing the fence sure looks like SuperFun to me! I wish our temps would take the huge plummet like yours did!
This morning it is 46 degrees, it feels cold but we are very happy to feel cold as it is better than hot!
wow what a cool game.. we love your neighbor!
Nelson loves her too, LOL!
Do you ever get to be on the same side of the fence?
We meet out on walks but we haven’t played together in the yard.
OMDs that was so much fun and your commentary made me feel as if I were there too.
Gosh your girlfriend the gorgeous Leonberger is faster than greased lightning. I seem to recall when she was just a wee pup. Loved seeing her again

She is big and I think when she is fully grown, I will out run her because I am smaller and super strong. We will just keep on racing.
Wow! the doggies are having such fun and you got awesome action photos ~ thanks,
Wishing you good health, laughter and love in your days,

We love action at our house!
What fun times! We just read that your cooler weather will be moving into the area we’re vacationing, in Colorado, and can’t wait to get to play in some cooler temperatures!

It is sooo nice! We all are loving being outside once again.
Nelson, I predict that you will be the champion FASTCAT-er in your household! Olivia watch out!!! We love to run the fence with our neighbor dogs too! Jimmy Parker and Olive.
Um, he is almost 3 mph slower than me, so I don’t think he will beat me until I’m too old to run fast, LOL!
You have some great neighbours!
I wish my back garden had a see-through fence not a solid granite wall…
Toodle-oo!

We don’t like the privacy fences you can’t see through. Mom can’t stand them either. She says it feels like prison.
Oh, what fun you are all having! Apples are good for dogs, just the seeds are very not good. Benjamin liked to help himself to apples and pears and somehow always managed to eat around the core.
These apples are not sprayed or anything so the often have bugs and worms and stuff and the critters eat on them too. Mom gives us apples with our food sometimes, but good ones.
That was sure a lot of rip woofin’ fun with the girl nextdoor. Hopefully y’all can do it again soon!
Nelson runs with her now and then but it has been so hot. Now that it is cooler, we all hope to run more.
It’s so much fun having a running partner. Good for you guys-enjoy the cooler temps!
We are loving the cool air, open windows, and low humidity.
Doing that with your friend every evening would tire everyone out and ensure a good night’s sleep. I hope you get lots of opportunities!
With cooler weather there is a lot of racing around here in our yard. We all flop into bed at night and sleep great!
