I love love LOVE swimming, I always have. Ever since Mum and Dad took me to the beach for the very first time, I was in the water swimming around. I even went out in the surf on my first beach visit! Mum calls me a water baby, I think she’s probably right. One of the reasons I love swimming so much is cos I have a floaty bum. It’s really easy to just paddle around slowly when your bum floats!

Swimming at the Beach

- Love the floaty bum Luna!!! Don't ever change..you're a true STAR!!!! xx
- Luna, somehow I missed this one! You certainly do have a floaty bum, it sure cracked me up seeing you paddling with you front feet and just holding the back ones up and floating. Loved it!
Beach Shots: Me! (by Luna)
We went to the beach at Currumbin the other day and Mum took so many
nice photos of us, they are too much for just one post! So she’s going
to space them over a few days worth with a little theme for each day.
Right well FINALLY I managed to get my own post as Miss Kaya has been a bit of a hog lately. It’s all been about how Kaya is so cool, and so tall, and so clever – what about me! Well, I might not be super smart or super tall but I can do one thing that Kaya can’t.. it will be revealed later!
In the meantime, here’s a nice shot of me. Ignore Kaya’s head please. She insists on being in every shot.
Some more shots of me, see, Mum loves me too!
Enjoying the sunshine…
We found this cool rock and Mum and Dad decided it would be a good idea to get us to jump up on it for a photo. They tried and tried and tried with Kaya but she wouldn’t so it! What a wuss! I did it first go, then every time they asked me to afterwards. I even did a lovely sit-stay on it. I tell you, I’m going to be an agility STAR (when Mum finally starts taking me that is).
I even sat up there nicely and posed with Dad…
THEN I did some stand-stays! That rock was on a lean, but I stayed there!
And what did Miss Smarty-pants Kaya do while I was being wonderful? She just stood and watched from above…

Beach Shots: Posing
We went to the beach at Currumbin the other day and Mum took so many

What would a visit to the beach be without some posing for the camera for Mum. It was very windy though and there were lots of people there cruising around using sails – Mum explained that the people on the water with the sails are called ‘windsurfers’ and the people on the water with the sails in the air are called ‘kitesurfers’. I reckon it looks fun! Though I don’t think it’s something that doggies can do.
Anyway Mum decided we needed some nice posed photos. I didn’t think she was going to have much luck being so windy but we decided to try anyway.
Things weren’t going too badly, except for our flyaway ears!
Plus, there was sand blowing in our faces which wasn’t too pleasant, plus, there was a fisherman with an interesting looking bucket just behind Mum and Dad and we were pretty keen on heading on over to investigate!
So we ended up pretty much giving up on the whole posing thing. Maybe next time!

- i am beyond jealous that you live close to a beach at all - and especially one where you can take your dogs!
- Those ears are irresistible! Love them!

Another thing we just LOVE doing at the beach is swimming. We especially love it when Dad throws us a stick so we can swim out to fetch it.
Here we are waiting patiently for Dad to throw the stick…
Sometimes I get a bit tricky and slowly back up so I can get a head start…
Luna’s pretty quick in the surf though. This time she outpaced me!
I still like to help her bring it back that last little bit though!
Just to prove that I do actually fetch sticks from the deep water (I have some dignity to regain here), here’s a shot of me fetching on the calm side.

- They are the most gorgeous creatures I have ever seen as is the ocean, my goodness! OHHH are they possibly on the Barf or raw diet? We are struggling with allergy issues here?
- Cheryl - thanks! Yes they are raw fed - Kaya since about 4-5 months and Luna since we brought her home at 8 weeks. They thrive on it and both have tremendous appetites! No problems with allergies luckily.
- This beach is beautiful! I really want to take Buddy to the dog beach a little ways from our house, but I'm worried about how he'll do. He's terrified of swimming pools, but I think he'd get into the ocean, because it is more gradual than steps.
