Hiking with the Akita girls - SPAM

edited October 2008 in Akita (秋田犬)
Today Jen and I took Lani and Fuji for a hike on the Elliot Barker trail, by Apache Pass. It was a really nice day for a hike, we enjoyed it. This was a short hike since the Akita girls are young and can't do the long hikes.

Now that Lani is more stable from her Thyroid meds. we are trying to get her out and socialized as much as possible. She did really well and really seemed to enjoy it.

Fuji on the other hand... Well she enjoyed it a bit too much. She found some animal feces and decided to rub/role on it. so in these pics the dark marking on her face are from poo. :o\

    Looks like another perfect fall day! Fuji's poo face is GROSS. The snuggle pic is adorable though. Lani really is very pretty.

    Lani & Fuji are quite the lookers! So leggy haha :)

    Fuji is cute, naughty, but cute :) Besides! Shouldn't it be her mother & father's fault for not keeping her away from the poo ;p lol

    Awesome spam Brad! Thanks! :D~

    The poo face is gross, but hysterical.
    And I agree with Dave, Lani is beautiful. Fuji is as well, but there is something I just love about Lani.

    Well, Fuji got a bath so she is no longer a poo head. She still kinda smells tho. :oT

    Ahi, Kona and Lani also got baths. Ahi really needed it, she felt rough to the touch from rolling in the mud. Also, this was Kona's second bath [ever] and come to find out he is soft and kinda fluffy!!! :o)

    Brad: The sunset pics are amazing! Another fantastic hiking trail, and sounds like, on the whole, everyone had a fun time! Thanks for sharing all the pics, including poo-face (TMI?), beautiful ladies, and the great shots of doggies looking in and out through the various windows. Love the "Halloweeny-type" pic of Kona on the stairs... it is so hard to get a good "face" pic of a black dog!

    Showering Josephine has become a regular part of the ritual after going to the dog park... too much doggie slobber, mud, "stickers" from the fall plants, etc. We always notice that her fur is soft and fluffy afterwards... She loves the post-shower rubdown with the towel, so seems to tolerate the shower part of it because she knows what's coming next. Only thing is, usually my husband has to pick her up and carry her into the shower. Can you spell stubborn?!?

    They look great! Fuji really felt right at home, huh?

    You have great looking trails close to you.

    Awesome pictures. I think Fuji is just gorgeous! Poo-face and all! It reminds me, Nola rubbed around in some rabbit poo the other week and smelled awful. She got a bath for that one!

    The sunset pictures are just stunning. So who is up for a trip to Brad and Jen's for some hiking and sunsets??? :)
