I forgot to post these shots from a couple weeks ago of my boy (a PWD) playing with one of my boarders (a bernedoodle). They really like each other, it’s super sweet to watch them.

The two dogs are tugging a stuffed toy between them
One of them is laying on his back with a ball in his mouth, while the other stands over him in a playful pose
Both of them are sharing chewing on a single ball, their mouths locked in perpendicular

“This human has treats, I know he does… we should pose and look cute!”
#dogs #DogsOfMastodon #dogsOfPixelFed

A corgi leaps up onto a large mossy log, and looks back over his shoulder to see if I noticed how cute his butt looks.
Three dogs on a fern covered trail; one small fuzzy guy stands on his hind legs to say he would like a treat please.
Again with the log posing! These dogs know what I pay them for.

The gorgeous spring weather continued, and these friends certainly made the most of it!

#Travel Vacation in #CinqueTerre #Italy These shots along the coastline were all taken from a ferry boat that we took from La Spezia to Monterosso. 2/n

The same stone church from another view, with a long slope of rocks from the sea up to the wall.
Giant rocks line the seaside, forming a basin from which a field of greenery leads up to a stone fortress.
A rugged mountain climbs out of the sea. One face is covered with rich vegetation. Another face is bare rock, mostly white but with a wide vein of vivid red from iron ore.

Rumble in the jungle

Just two #dogs on today’s hike. A light steady rain combined with warmer temperatures to give us a real tropical jungle experience!

Both dogs leap one after the other over a fallen log on the trail
The dog duo wade side by side through a shallow creek with rich greenery along the banks
They stop at a row of ferns and look back over their shoulders

I’m back in the states and back on the trail! I enjoyed my vacation but it’s nice to see my buddies again and get deep in the green.

A long serving plate with all kinds of seafood and some veggies, all baked with a topping of salted bread crumbs
A walkway through the village ends at a large rock wall of natural stone formation at the edge of the sea. A cave-like portal has worn through the base of the stone, big enough to stoop through, but there is a fence and a warning sign. Houses and stone foundations have been built atop this rock formation, forming a colorful bridge of buildings.
A hill rises steeply at the edge of the village. It has many terraces, fences, and retaining walls, and each terrace grows grapes or lemons.

#Travel Vacation in #CinqueTerre #Italy 9/n This was the first of many anchovy dishes I ate while visiting Monterosso del Mare. They are really big on anchovies, in every restaurant and souvenir shop.

A plate of fried anchovy fillets stuffed with seafood and spinach, along with an Aperol spritz
A very narrow stone walkway curves uphill between tall narrow houses
The alley ends at an ancient stone wall, with its arched portal all closed up with more stone. Over the top of the wall spill vines and lemon trees.

Forest bathing all the time really has done wonders for my mental health. Seriously.

A new guy joined my Tuesday crew! He’s a Welsh springer spaniel and he has a great personality, fun and chill.

Beautiful day for a rumpus in the woods! I’m going to take a couple weeks off, for the first real vacation I’ve had in many years, so it was extra nice to close out on such a lovely note.

#Travel Vacation in #CinqueTerre #Italy 4/n

A wider view shows that terraced slope sits behind and above a village perched atop giant rock abutments at the edge of the sea. There’s a harbor inlet, with buildings up above each side, and a large stone bridge connecting the two sides.
Another view of one of those little villages, tightly capping a huge rock base, sort of like a filling on a tooth. Richly green mountains rise behind and all around.
At the crest of the high rolling hills there is another little village tucked among the trees. At a natural vee in the peaks, separate from the village, a large church stands alone.

Closer view of a large hotel and concrete promenade at a bend where the land juts out into the sea. The hotel is pastel yellow with red terra cotta tiled roof.
Two houses overlooking the sea, nestled between thick swaths of trees on a rocky embankment. The sky is clear and the sea is a rich turquoise.
One of the villages of Cinque Terre, with many tall and narrow pastel colored buildings, all crammed together side by side in a mass, on a rocky harbor full of small boats.

The woods are a magical place! I’m especially grateful to be here in springtime.

Someone hikes up a winding stone path between narrow pastel houses and an ivy covered rock wall
Looking down over the rooftops of a dense little village on a hillside
Tall thin houses in pastel colors stand close together. They all have rustic wooden window shutters painted green.

Here’s a few more bonus photos from the last hike, I had a heck of a time picking just a few to post!

A lanky black dog leaps as he runs through rich greenery in the sun dappled woods
A muscular pittie mix runs speedily over the ferns as sunshine peeks through the trees
A big cream retriever strolls along a large mossy tree that fell like a bridge a couple meters above a creek. The scene is lush with all types of wild growth.

Just three #dogs on this hike, but they bring plenty extra personality!

The heavy rains today got the creek flowing fully, so we had some serious splashing to do!

Two dogs run very fast chasing each other through the ferns among the trees
Another moment of huge smiles among the pine needles and ferns, as they look up and say got any more treats?

Yesterday’s crew was a doodle party! I could hardly pick which photos to post, they were all so adorable.
#dogs #DogsOfMastodon #DogsOfPixelfed

Two bernedoodles standing cheek to cheek, smiling. They are clearly best friends. A creek flows rapidly behind them.
The four doodles stand among endless ferns and look hopeful for a treat
Now they are by a fallen tree across a muddy creek bank, smiles all around

A little chill and damp can’t slow us down! Thank goodness the wind was not blowing like it is today though.
