Xander with the big dogs. Our last, perfect day on the beach before rain and travel. Xander shepherded his way through our day. His first task is to say hello to everyone at Montrose Dog Beach and I mean everyone. He exhausted himself running around sniffing and licking new two legged and four legged friends. After a little running around with some young ones and a sneaky escape out of the gate (where would you want to go thats’s better?), he took up a spot by the entrance. Like the true French Shepherd that seems to be most prominent in his blood, he greeted each and everyone as they came in. Xander has never met a human or dog he doesn’t like. He can deal with the happy ones, the ones that like to dominate and show their strength and the ones are only interested in tennis balls and wave surfing. He is mild mannered and friendly. He’s the Walmart greeter of the dog beach. Our little family, sat in a low walk and watched the people, watched the dogs and took in the gorgeous day. I am calm and centered today because I spent part of my Sunday on the water. Water energy is healing and life affirming. It helps us stay present with both our challenges and the ease in our lives. It’s the perfect element for me to focus on and be surrounded by during my birthday month. Considering it’s only the sixth day of June, I think it’s going to be a great birthday! 🎂🎂🎂 #bigdog #beauceron #beauceronmix #shepherd #frenchshepherd #dogpark #dogs #dogsofinstagram #dog #montrose ##sunday #sundayvibes #weekend #weekendvibes montrosedogbeach #chicago #lakemichigan #lake #hometown #sweethome (at Montrose Dog Beach) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ced9mCnrjvj/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
