6-23-10 On the fast road

There goes Abby Sunshine AGAIN. She just loves to run. She doesn’t jog, she is on the FAST road. When she is fetching a ball, it seems like she sprints as fast as she possibly can.

She slows down a bit on the return run. She looks at the person throwing the ball, getting ready for the hand-off.

What a good dog! She hands it right to Renae. She has been trained that way. She will give it to an outward reaching hand. She doesn’t drop it on the ground for you to go fetch.  You need not go chase a ball down the road, or go anywhere out of your way. Abby Sunshine brings it right to you. What a gal!

I like this image of Abby looking straight up at Renae, poofy tail all fluffed out, waiting patiently for Renae to get a grip on the ball.

Another toss down the road. Based on what we can see in this close up, the toss has probably just left Renae and is starting on its journey. Abby is getting the 10-20 (location) of the ball, ready to momentarily take off.
