This Beach is for the Dogs!
Huntington Beach, CA, has a designated "Dog Beach". It's about a mile north of the pier and is one of the few S CA beaches where dogs can run free. We decided to take our 1-year old chihuahua there to see if she would like it (I was fully expecting her to freak out and need to be carried back to the car) but she did surprisingly well. I got to take some photos, my wife chatted with other dog owners, and our chihuahua was literally a blur of canine activity!
We went after dinner on a weeknight, and it wasn't crowded at all. In the photo above, my wife's got the chihuahua on the leash... you can see a handful of dogs and owners, with Huntington Beach pier in the background.

WOW!!! I'm so glad I stopped by from Skywatch Friday! I haven't been to Huntington Beach when I travelled to the US in 1980 & 2010. It was one place I have really wanted to see.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots of the beach at dusk and that sunset is stunning!!

ReplyDeleteAwesome series of shots, I feel like I've been to the beach! Sorry I been so quiet these last couple weeks, I’ve been really ill (now finally diagnosed with Whooping Cough even though I was immunized) and have had another very rough week.
