I have done this on a couple of other forums, and it is always great to do on international ones as it is fantastic (although can be a little envious!) to see the beautiful places people get to walk.

I think I am quite lucky - Although I can only do this one once a week, it is not too far from me, and has just about everything a dog could enjoy - lots of bunny hunting, good sniffs - all open, beach and swimming.

There are a couple of others as well...but I shall await everyone elses :)

I'm wondering where this is Tassie, not in the Bude/Widemouth Bay area is it? I'll take the camera with me tommorow & post some pics of our "regular" walk.

Nope - I am further down than that. The Pics of the Dunes is actually Perran sands - going down onto the beach. The Beach is quite large and luckily the coastal path bit we walk on has not cliffs down to the beach so it is safe for the guys to be off lead the whole walk.
The Main 'Tourist' area is at the other end, usually there are only a few hardcore dog walkers, and/or joggers at this end :)

Hmm...Like how many?? :lol: I usually walk with my 5 - but I have taken as many as 9 up here. It is the one place I feel safe doing that.

ETA - Typical one dog out of shot (Tassle actually!)

Nice place! that grass seems soo.. soft!
Most of times I go for a walk with my dogs I dont take the camera with me, then I have an small ammount of photos of them like that.
These photos are old ones from a place with a small river, not much far from my home.

Oh, what nice photos both Tassle and Nebulosa..

I don't have as nice photos, and we don't have many places to go off-leash, but here are a few from a beach we like to go to. There is a lot of those, at least, in California.. :)

All these pics are great :) - like you said Tassle, it's nice to see different places around the world.

Wow! Lovely places guys.

Yukidomari - do you have any natives in the sea you have to be careful of? or are the waters fairly safe?

Great pictures again :)

Elf, don't tell me you actually managed to wear out a CsV :lol:

So big respect, I never take more than 3 (mine & my housemate's 2) & from those 2 listen at any time & they take it turns to be the "naughty" one :evil:.

Anyway some pics from today's walk in sunny Libomyšl.http://www.wolfdog.org/Users/iainvei...1/DSC00076.JPG http://www.wolfdog.org/Users/iainvei...1/DSC00078.JPG http://www.wolfdog.org/Users/iainvei...1/DSC00084.JPG

Thanks Baz - I went through Photobucket, but still have to learn how to tweak it properly:)

Click with your right key the photo which has been earlier loaded on some other webapge (photobucket, picassa, etc.) and copy the address of the photo. Then click the only colour icon above the reply box on wd.org (5th from the right) and paste the address. Make sure you the letters "http" are not doubled. And that's it. :)

Here in Czech a group of 20 or 30 of us went up Sněžka (the highest mountain in Czech on the border with Poland) a couple of weekends ago, links to our pics are here:

Ok - Its official I am Jealous!!

Baz that looked Phenomenal! What an amazing walk and view :) How long did it take? Are there any off lead places or is it strictly lead on?

Thanks for sharing everyone :D

I too, Tassle, am jealous! Such lovely locales, and nice rural environments............. I like all the open fields, and small lakes I have seen here, and of course all the CsVs looking happy.

I must have another Vlcak soon too!

Tassle.. There are things in the shores near us - sometimes large shark sightings are reported - but it's really really rare for an attack to be reported (on humans). Our dogs don't go deep enough for any sharks to get them anyway.. :shock::shock:

Czertice.. our dog has Weimeraner friends too!

What a great friend for dog games Weimaraners can be, right? Our Weimaraner friend tends to disobey, LOVES to hunt, and sometimes is quite stubborn/headstrong, but he also loves wolfish wild games and running around for prolonged periods of time, where other breeds simply cannot keep up with wolfdogs:] I'd love to seem more of your pictures, do you have an online gallery?

We met up at about 10:30 & set off about 11 and we were at the summit at about 2 or 2:30 and about another 3 hours down again by a different route. If anyone is in Czech for bonitations or whatever I can definitely recommend it, the views are incredible & you can come up (or down) from the Polish side too.

Tassle, I'm really jealous that you have the beach, so swings & roundabouts I guess. We always used to go to Bude (& from there round Cornwall & Devon) on holiday when I was a kid & miss the sea here a bit.

Also thanks everyone for the great pics, I guess we can all be a bit jealous...

Hi Rona,

Slightly off-topic & possibly a question for admin but might be useful info for others trying to post pics here, I tried to link to photos from my facebook page but they're not appearing, do you know if I can link to FB or do I need to use another site?

Thanks

A collection of moments filmed during our walks in the woods and fields around Turin, both alone and with friends, during this spring:

http://youtu.be/Tiz-iG6H80A

This is my favorite photos topic... the connection between us, wolfdogs and nature is priceless...
Fede86 your dogs and the video are beautiful, it almost makes me pickup my second wolfdog right away :)

Thank you, fortunately I only own one dog, I don't think I could handle more :lol:

Another walk in Thai's world:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBgN0QE-ahM

Waaaw, amazing :) I really salute you! The people really seem tolerant, when Vila is off leash in more crowded paths, people aren't as tolerant as they appear in your video :)

Fede, I agree! what a nice environment for dogs!! and nice dogs too, of course! we always enjoy following your photos and videos.

Yes Turin is a very nice city for dogs, I have rarely met people here who were afraid or troubled by River's presence or by the fact that he was off-leash :) Most of the time they are just curious and interested in knowing about the breed. In this particular park the police patrol seems to be ok with the dogs being off leash too...
