Backyard pooch pics

Heres my newest batch of photos from our play in the backyard. I really want to get pictures at the park we go to, but unfortunately they've been doing construction since August and at the moment I can't find a time that balances between having the place to myself, and having proper lighting.

Fingers crossed they finish their construction work soon. The park looks like a huge mess, places blocked off, trees cut down, pathways torn up, dirt and wood chip piles everywhere... It makes me sad to see the ravine this way. It's always been so natural, and I've been going to the same park for my whole life.

I felt like crying when they cut down the trees along one of my favorite sections of trail. :sad:

But on a happier note, I got some fun shots of my pooches!

Love the jolly ball pic looks like Cody doesn't even know Nova's there :laughing: or doesn't care if she's in the way :D

Happy Cody! (He's always happy usually, I really love this picture though, it just seems to capture it so well)
