Beach Buddies

One of our favorite times of the day is sunrise and sunset. Usually together, Steve and I will take the dogs out to the beach  for a run. . . . they do the running!
Often we are joined by Enrique and his two dachshunds. Yesterday we met a new "buddy" Poochie and his master, Hector. Poochie is a scrappy 2 lb. Yorkshire Terrier.   Steve throws a stick and all the dogs run after it until it accidentally goes in the water and play time is over.  Social interaction for dogs and their masters. Enrique is Spanish by birth, raised in England and now living in Miami.  A very good example of the ecclectic people that live here.  You will hear every kind of language spoken as you walk down the street, but obviously most often, spanish. No matter what the language or cultural background of the people,  dogs are a common denominator and have opened the way to many a new conversation and even friendships.
