Trip to town with the dog.

Shadow was backseat "driver" for our drive into town recently. She loves to ride in the car.


While Mommy was grocery shopping Puppy accepted her leash and we went for walk outside the parking lot. We returned to the car and met a Senior couple, whose husband was wearing a cool sweatshirt with a saying on it.


'Twas a good day.

I would love to see more of Shadow!

I am going to, once again, figure out how to add some pics to DU as well. I have a 15 year old Border Collie Mix and a Hell raisin' 3 year old mini Aussie.

Here's the basic process. Go to postimages.org
1. On a computer, drag the photo from your desktop to postimages Choose images box.
2. After a couple of seconds, when the upload is completed you'll see a list of links. At Direct link click on the blue and white icon at the right to copy the “direct link.”
3. In the Photography forum on DU click on Start discussion and on the next page type in a title for your photo. In the Discussion text box click paste, then at the bottom of the page click Post. Wait patiently and your photo will appear on DU.

Let me know please if this helps. It's fun to see readers respond to your photos.

He was a real nice man, around my age. I loved the sweatshirt instantly too!

8. Oh she was Lois! She loves to ride in the car. Mommy always lowers Shadow's windows down just fares

enough to let air in. Sometimes a car or a truck will pass by and she'll bark at them.
I thought it a neat sweatshirt too. Thank You!

1. Did she keep her yap shut? lol humor
2. What is the make of that vehicle, I love the seats and their color.

Oh and then there's the beauty of Shadow. She has that profile for this picture. What a doll.

11. No No, that's a valid question JM. She actually did this trip. Other trips she has barked occasionally

at passing cars/pickups, but as soon as they've gone past she's stopped.
My wife shopped for and purchased this '21 Subaru Forester. She done good.
Thanks!
