Tsunami enjoys some time with the kids

Today we went to the lake at Baumholder to enjoy the sunshine and nice spring day. Tsunami needed some exercise and to work on his water skills. He's still learning what swimming is all about. He doesn't like to go any deeper than where his feet can't touch the bottom.
So we threw the ball around for about an hour with him chasing after it. And of course giving Dad the old "Now why did you have to go and throw it that far" LOOK.
Unfortunately I didn't bring my swim trunks with me otherwise I would have gotten in there with him and worked on some really swimming. But that will come in time.
Once I figured that he was tired of chasing the ball, I let Tsunami take a chill on the grass to help him dry off and enjoy the various dogs that were walking by. He quietly sat, patiently watched, and even posed for some really nice pictures with the kids.
It was an incredible afternoon spent with an incredible "Man's best Friend". Tsunami has truly blossomed into an incredible companion and true joy to be around.
His love for the kids is unfailing, and these pictures really capture his spirit of love, play, and protection.
His heart is gentle, but firm, quiet but oh so full of energy.
And the facial expressions he displays will make a complete bystander stop and marvel.

I couldn't have hoped for a better canine companion than Tsunami!
