One of the places I go to play ball is near the Willamette River. The nice thing is that we can walk the beach–this is my version of ‘walking’

That was last summer…today was a bit different! Winter snow melt is full on and the river is running high. Not that it mattered to me, although Mom said I couldn’t go any further than those ducks (Hmmm, Oregon Ducks?)

You can see the steps to the beach…which is under several feet of water.
Except for a bit of cooling off, I decided ball playing should be done up in the dog park.
Probably a wise move, considering Mom was a bit against trying to walk the beach.
Whoa! You were really catching some air there Sage!
You are a very enthusiastic ball player Sage and very good at it too!!!
Sage, We think YOU are part duck. We have never seen a dog so taken to the water. Do you have webbed feet? Hee hee
Sage, I think you play ball better than any poochy I know! You look like you are having the very best time.
Those air shots are AWESOME!! Gotta love that photographer!!
That’s some pretty springy walking!
Woof! Woof! LIFE is sure good. LOVE the action shots. Lots of Golden ALOHA n Woofs, Sugar
The Typist tried to take pictures of me catching ball like you do, just yesterday! But I wasn’t any good at it so she gave up. I think I might be too big boned to jump like you, Sage.
Great pictures Sage’s mom! How do you do it?!? I mean, do you anticipate them? It’s so cool.
Huggies and Cheese,
Haopee
I didn’t know that you could FLY!!!
Mom hasn’t taken me to the beach yet and I haven’t told her whether or not I like the water so it’ll be a surprise for her when we go for the first time! You sure look like you’re having a BLAST!
XOXO
HERO
I think you should be on the Olympic high jump team!
Wow, you can really get up high, Sage. Be careful near that water, don’t go out too far.
