Can't Keep Them Groom

I give up. They roll. They scrunch their heads on the pool cover minutes after I groom. Inula was leader of the pack today. They were all after her to play. Then Brewski cut them off at the pass. 

I have to apologize to Lori and Roger and Mike. We had some great moments captured of Scruffy playing with Stone and Pepper playing with Ella and Brewer cutting Inula off at the pass but I think Nathan had the camera  on manual without setting the settings. Every single photo of them (other than a few taken earlier) were so blurry. You get wrapped up in the moment and sometimes you don't pay attention and I blame me as I click in manual and Nathan requires the auto settings. Oh well. I need to put it back on auto or just use my camera. It doesn't always have the right lens on it though. 

Here is the gallery.

He also took some precious ones of Panda and Thyme. Those too were blurry. Oh well, it happens.

Dogs are coming in with cedars everywhere. So, off to brush them out again then it will be supper time. Nathan is taking a nap with a few dogs. When is it my nap time?

They all look pretty good to me. I love the raised leg, it's like he/she is telling a tale.

That's Stone. He has a sensational personality!

Darlah the pics you do have are wonderful. I love the one of Stone with the paw too. You got some great ones of Inula too. Who is the dark brown doggie with Nathan in the kitchen toward the end?

Darlah, the dogs all looked brushed to me. It only takes minutes in the dampness to undo the look of a fresh groomed long haired dog. Inula looked like she was the magnet for all the dogs today, I love Stone's 'attitude' he is a handsome boy and he makes nice babies.

That's Inula
