Niki (8 months) at the Irvine Lake (Many pictures)

greekblue · 03-17-2008, 10:51 PM

A few days ago I took Niki for a nice walk to the Irvine Lake -- 10 - 15 min. walk from where we live, depending on how many times Niki will stop to smell the "roses."
It is very beautiful and peaceful there. We walked over the bridge and down to the lake through the designated pathway. Niki had a lot of fun going as near the lake as I would allow her and she was really curious about the ducks. She did not want to chase them, but she was watching them very seriously and she tried to go to them slowly, so they will not rush back into the water, but of course it never worked for her to get too close and have a "talk" with one of them

We went two days in a row and we plan to go back again tomorrrow (I usually drive there and I park across the street, so we can walk longer at the lake), other times, we make the 15 min. walk to the lake and we get rest before we walk back home.

I am pretty bad at taking pictures -- especially of a dog who is moving all the time trying to look at the ducks, instead of me -- so bare with me.

Hope you enjoy my wonderful puppy. People say that she looks like a stuffed animal and she does!

More pictures to come soon!

Niki is looking great, such a happy girl and so cute with all that black fluff. She's precious!

She is gorgeous. How old is she? It looks like she had a nice day and you too. What a pretty place. I enjoyed seeing your pictures a lot. I think they're just fine. It is hard to get pics when they move when you're not expecting it, especially these digital camera that are so delayed when you click. I think I see a little pony tail. Is that what I see? Too cute.

Thank you all for your nice comments -- I LOVE this puppy sooo much!
Carrie, Niki is 8 months; well, 81/2 months now. Yes, what you see is a little pony tail

Is her everyday hairdo, but with different colors. Without that little ponytail, she would not be able to see anything in front of her. I will get some pics with her hair down too; she looks soo funny.

I will post more pics soon from the period of 6 - 7 months old.

Oh she's grown SO MUCH!

That ponytail is sooo adorable on her, she's a cutie pie!

Niki is looking great - she sure does look like a happy girl. And I think you did a great job taking the pics - and Niki was such a good girl staying put and watching the ducks from afar - River would have been in that lake like a flash trying to get close to them!!

britishbandit · 03-18-2008, 05:16 AM

Beautiful pics! Niki is adorable!

Ritz459 · 03-18-2008, 12:20 PM

Look at all that hair.

What a pretty girl she is. Not too many BRT's around. I've never seen one in person.
