Tired Ted after a hard day at work. #dog #dogsOfMastodon #foxredlab #labrador

Up early on The Ridgeway with Ted before the heat kicks in #dog #dogsOfMastodon #foxredlab #labrador

Ted was not impressed when I suggested maybe he grow fingers and thumbs so he can pick up and carry his own poo. #dog #dogsOfMastodon #labrador #foxredlab

Ted loves his sleep so much he smiles while he does it #dog #dogsOfMastodon #foxredlab #labrador

Ted surveying all the grass he has made yellow. (not really, a farmer has sprayed a path through his field) #dog #lab #labrador #foxredlab #dogsOfMastodon

First ever trip to the seaside for Ted. Turns out he can swim… #dog #dogsofmastodon #foxredlab #labrador

Camouflaged #foxredlab #labrador #dogsofmastodon in their natural environment.

Walks with our dog Brodie are characterised by much snuffling and occasional runs to follow some scent. He likes to lead but stops at every junction to see which way we’ll go. I make a decision based on time and weather. He always is accepting. If I offer him the choice he will turn the way he’d like and I’m happy to follow that.

This walk by the sea is never the same two times running…. What is always the same is the joy of having a dog for company.
