The All-Terrain Dog goes Mudding

| Look at that face! You can't tell me she's not smiling. |
Now let me give you a little background. This is the dog that grew up in Florida. She hates getting a bath. She hates going to the beach. She won't go near the water. And she has never been much of a playful dog nor done much running around.
Since being in the big truck she has suddenly become my “all-terrain dog”.
She absolutely loves riding in the truck. The cooler weather and the higher altitudes seems to bring out a playfulness in her that was never there before.
On this particular day in late January we were at Ocean City State Park in Washington State, which is on the Pacific Coast. For my puppy and me, it was our first time ever seeing the the Pacific Ocean. Her reaction was priceless! She spent a good hour literally running (on her leash of course) all over the beach, in and out of the water, splashing in the puddles, even swimming in the chilly little rivulets of water left behind by the receding tide. She pranced and pounced and thoroughly covered her legs in cold beach mud with what can only be described as a smile on her pretty puppy face.
