Continuing my story about my first ever beach camping trip….
The first night while I was asleep in the human crate/portable house thing, Mom and Dad were in the next site hanging out with more of our family. While they were gone, a raccoon came into our campsite and stole all of my foodies. No kidding. I wouldn’t joke about something as serious as that!! The next morning I had to starve until Dad found a store that had my kind of food. Whew! That was awful! Here’s a picture of what the raccoon did to the bag my foodies were in…
While we were there, I got to go on some fun hikes.
One time we hiked 5 miles, just to see some strange animals that just slept all day. They looked like a bunch of silly logs on the beach, if you ask me, and I didn’t even get to play with them. They were called Harbor Seals, and they came to this beach just to have their babies and sleep. How boring is that ?
I think the little seal that wanted to play with me liked me. Must have been the seal of approval 
Here’s what they look like when they are awake. (not Mom’s photo)
Moving right along…
The best part of the trip was going to the beach that was FOR DOGS ONLY!!!
While we were there, I got to run wild all I wanted, play in the water, and chase after my toys. Wahooo!!!! I LOVE the beach!
Sometimes I ran so fast that when I tried to stop, my feet went flying up into the air, like this…
It was my first time ever seeing a water deep enough to swim in, altho that’s kinda hard ’cause it kept moving all the time. It was still running toward me and then away again like on the other beach.
Look at how much FUN I was having on the dog beach….
The funny noise my Mom made when filming this was because she felt something weird brush up against her foot while video taping me running. She looked down and saw this strange creature, called a Channel Island Sea Anemone. She’s adding a close up borrowed from National Geographic. (it’s the clear one) We saw quite a few of them. I think they look like a circle of worms all holding hands
I’m gonna miss camping on the beach and playing at the beach that’s just for us puppies. I sure am glad I got a home that takes me fun places like this. First the mts., then the beach to camp. I wonder where they’ll take me next????

What fun! Awesome pics of you running in the beach! It does look like your brakes might need some work!
You are a lucky Beh Behr indeed!

It looks like you were meant to be a beach dog Behr! LOVE the video, especially you jumping in the surf. You really had a major case of the zoomies. Probably because you need to go to the beach more often! We love the beach too and we also get zoomies every single time.
You have some really cool folks to take you on such a fun adventure.

Hi, Behr Behr–How neat to watch you run and play on the beach! If you lived near me, you could go every day ;-D !! I’m glad you didn’t do like my Old English Sheepdog–she chased the waves and bit them…..and swallowed a bunch of water. Good thing we went to the beach on a back road–she had to jump out and go potty a lot! I’m going to send you pictures of your cousins real soon. They are: Charlie (Corgie), Cali (Catahoula), and Jack (Lab), and they were all rescued from bad places. Come visit me someday, and you can live on the beach, if you’d like!
Hugs,

Wow, Behr Behr – you saw seals?? That is SO cool! And I loved that video of you doing zoomies at the beach – you look like you were having so much fun! I used to do zoomies like that when I was younger…but now I only run if my humans run around first and get me excited…I guess that’s just part of getting old, huh!
Slobbers,

WOW Behr Behr, where did your mommy find a dog beach without any other doggies? That looked like the perfect beach for me and Max. and why didnt you eat the racoon? I almost did one, but daddy pulled me away, then had to protect me from it charging us. BARK! Sasha the Princess
Hey Sasha, tell your Mom to just take you to the beach just south of Carpenteria. You can have it all to yourself just like I did
It’s between the cove with the seals and Carp. state park, and it’s a real dog beach.
Eeew. I don’t think raccoons would taste very good. Mom said the dane she had before me got attacked by a raccoon and it wasn’t very pretty (that bites).
