Swamp Creature

Reina looks like the swamp creature rising out of the swamp and Jake appears to be in panic mode and heading for the hills!  Sometimes just having the camera set on high speed and watching out for the spontaneous action can get you the most entertaining dog shots. Reina always enjoys doing the ambush thing when she's playing.  She'll hide and wait, then pounce on the other dogs like she's going in for the kill. The instincts must be strong ;-)

A fun action catch, Gary.  Reina's eyes are quite striking.

Ha!  Gracie does the same thing to little Maddie, and her long houndy legs catches the fleeing Maddie in a few giant strides.

Love the action, nice capture!
