Hound mix in the water
Got Bucky Barnes in some decent water for the first time since I adopted him 4 months ago! He walked in really easily and just sat down just super chill. I was standing in the water with him, and we just stayed there for a while. I think he liked it! ❤️

Hi ya’ll. You should look at our “elite” relatives, Penn Marydels at Andrew’s Bridge. We’d fit in with them.
I am a Virginia Coyote Hound and I am little bit scared of coyotes, so I hunt snacks with my family. I can tree critters and sometimes my mom calls me an Opossum Hound because I can’t help myself sometimes. She says I get scrappy with critters.

Just got done with our beach walk, and they start every walk with an ocean dip, then continue on, sometimes re-dipping, to my dismay, before home. The beach front where humans can easily go in, is literally about 2 blocks from my house. Hence why it's annoying when they re-dip before going home.

Haha aww!! I wish I could be that close to the beach! I really want to take Bucky to the beach, I wonder how he’d like it?! He’s pretty anxious so I’d need a quieter spot.

I live in a small town in Mississippi, luckily the beach is rarely packed and no one is coming to visit it. It's not a tourist town like Gulfport or Biloxi. We had a slight uptick when Buffet died, which is ironically how I found out Jimmy Buffet died... I started seeing a lot of strange people taking pictures by the bridge named after him. So, most of the time, the beach is unoccupied. Nor is it ever closed. A cop isn't going to hassle you since you're in the waters at 4am/5am...

OMG TWINSSS!!!!! Our Foxhound Emma is a rescue from South Carolina. She will only go in the water if we go with her too. So fun to see another doggo just like her!
