And My Third Beach Experience!!!

It was least expected. Actually, the post I had in my mind was totally different and then suddenly the least expected happened. And that was my third beach experience!!! Hope you read about my first and second beach experiences in the earlier post. Don't worry guys, I will not keep uploading all my beach experiences unless something interesting happens. It happened this time. 

The day before yesterday, father asked me, "Shall we go to beach tomorrow Chezhi?" "Oh really, that's great" I thought to myself. 

Shall I get ready now itself dad?

It was just afternoon. I had to wait till next morning. I was excited. Little did I realize who else was going to join us. 

Next day morning, we got ready and went downstairs. And then there was someone at the gate whom I knew pretty well. Oh yes, it is my mom's sister. I ran to her and jumped on her. Then I saw my other Big B. I ran towards him to greet him. Hope you recall them from my earlier post 'My First, Sorry, Second Car Ride'. 

The last person to get down from the other car was my big sister. Oh, a great surprise indeed. Hope you recall the big sister I was talking about in the post A Life Lesson. I jumped on her like I had never seen her in years. Just can't say how much I adore these guys. I felt pretty excited to be going out with all of them to the beach. 

For the first time in my car journey, mom was not sitting next to me. I was sitting between two Big Bs.

Experiencing 'Sister feels protected' moment  

I turned towards the bigger Big B to express my happiness.

Do you also feel the same happiness bigger Big B?

Yes, I am sure about it. 

I can never be petted enough 

Everyone around me was happy which made me super happy. I just kept looking at each one of them and through the windows. 

Car rides are interesting...

Mom had moved to the rear seat with her big sister.

Hmmm...it is okay if mom feels happy with her sister

Anyway, I can understand this because I had a great time with my sister by birth a few days ago in our terrace. That was the post I had wanted to upload today. I am reserving it for the next.

How is life sis?

And mom appreciated me very much for the friendly approach. Naturally, I have to return the compliment to mom. 

We arrived at the beach. Fresh air is really good for health. 

The sun was up and above though the family always says that we should watch sunrise in beach.

You are an early riser, sun

Anyway, it was nice to look at. Big Sister was holding my leash and she was taking pic. 

Sure it is not selfie Big Sister?B'cos I am not ready yet

In less than five minutes, the sea turned more beautiful.

What a place to keep running!!!

Soon, father took over from Big Sister...

Time to exercise dad

and we started walking...

Is walking on two legs easy?

followed by jogging...

Do beaches grow as well, dad?

and then we started running at a good pace...and repeated. 

You should buy me shoes, dad

Right from the moment dad and I started running, mom stayed behind. I think her cam was more focused on Big Sister and the Big Bs.

Dad, it is NOT OUR pic...we are A PART of the pic mom had taken

As I went running with dad, rest of the family stayed behind as they seemed to have other plans. Dad and I returned in a short while. We had an interesting session hunting crabs. The more I chased them, the faster they went, either into the sea or into their hole, which father says is their home.

It is great you all make your own homes

It was fun. Then we decided to take a break.

What are these guys upto?

Big Sister and Big Brothers were standing in the waves. 

A Beautiful day indeed

What were they looking at? Mom said they were collecting shells.

Do shells have homes like crabs?

They were too involved. It seemed they were having lots of fun and getting lots of shells as well. Getting actively involved should be more interesting I suppose.

Bigger Big B seems to be at his hunting best

Did I begin to feel more interested? They went further into the sea. Did I want to join the party? May be...

I think only mom's back camera is working...

may be not...I decided to watch from the shore. It is sometimes more interesting to passively enjoy.

I don't mind waiting if you will give me some shells to play with

At last, I think they have made up their minds to return to the shore. Or, are they posing for the pic?

Want a hand?

They walked towards the shore. 

Had a whale of a time guys?

As they were returning to the shore, dad and I started a speed running session again.

Shall we jog from home next time dad?

After collecting shells like crazy, Big Sister and Big Bs started brisk walking along the shoreline. They went jogging as well.

It was fun watching you guys

We started walking back to our car. Despite the heat, the beach was still looking great. 

May be we should buy a boat house?

We were back in the car. I was again between Big Bs resting my head on the bigger Big B's lap. 

Brother's lap is always special

I felt so happy surrounded by people who loved and adored me. Both Big Bs placed their hands on me petting me gently. They were super protective of me. I felt extremely happy.

Bonding with Big Brothers

And with Big Sister as well.

Thank you all guys...love you loads

Before signing off, I got to say mom liked a pic taken by her sister so much that she wanted to post it in the blog. Generally, mom posts only pics that she takes. Today, she made an exception, in fact, two. One was for the pic taken by Big B, which is three pics above and the second was for the pic taken by her sister, which, she said was the best of all pics in this blog. Here it is.

Yes mom, I can't agree more

What did mom learn?

Well, actually, this particular study about dogs is an ongoing process. The emotional state of any member of the pet family influences the pet. According to a study,our close connection with dogs has helped both us and dogs to detect each other's emotions. And the emotion of pet family member heavily impacts the pet. The study also proved true what pet owners have long been saying; that their pets comfort them when they feel they are in some sort of distress. 

Just like our troubles and distress affect our pets our happiness makes our pets happy. So, no wonder, your pet feels happy when you are happily involved in outdoor activities. All she needs is your safety and happiness. So your pet would want to keep a watch on you to ensure your safety. Fresh air and space for free movement are the bonus that we give her. However, ultimately the pet loves your proximity, which she feels she will get when you are happy.
