Finally pics of Bear the Mountain Man
« on: September 10, 2007, 08:31:39 am »
Finally here are pics of Mr. Bear in his cute backpack and trendy footwear.  ;D I am happy to report that this time out in the wilderness his tootsies were safe and protected from harm. His cousin dog Token was not so lucky though because he ended up with sore paws & toe pads like Bear had on his last outing. All I can say is thank goodness my boy is ok with my crazy ways and lets me get away with so much torture, I mean fun.  :D

**Please know that the pics are not all authentic because we didn't have a "real" camera when we were camping. We bought a cheapy old fashioned one that took terrible pics and just got a new camera on Saturday so I took new pics today.**
Hugs,

Bear looks a little put out by this whole episode, I'm guessing he didn't get to go fishing this time. Are the paw protectors Ruff Wear?

Aww, Bear doesn't look too thrilled, but he is such a good sport!  He was probably thanking you when he didn't have sore footies though!

They are Ruff Wear. They actually worked so well and surprised us by how well they fit his feet which by the way are chubby in front and very narrow in the back. I wish we could've gotten 2 different sizes.  ;D And yes, he did swim although I had to rush to take off the shoes before he hit the water each day.

LOL He's so cute! Did he step high when you put his booties on? :) Bava probably would lie down and refuse to get up :)

His first few steps were wonky but then he walked just fine. I took a short video of him at home but can't get it uploaded into youtube. Sheesh.

That's some fancy footwear Bear is sporting.  He looks so cute!

Thanks. He doesn't mind at all when i put on his gear. I think he really knows that I am wierdo and since he is no danger or pain he can just chill out and let me have my fun.  :D

Bear looks like the ultimate backpacker! It looks like he's fully equipped. What a trooper for letting you put those funky booties on him.
