Keep Away

 
When we aren't out walking in the woods, there is nothing else
Lily enjoys more than a good ol' game of 'keep away'. The rules of this game are to take, and then keep the ball away from her dam, Sandie (Clear Sable Dog). For those of you
who don't know Sande, she is a retriving fool. I think Sandie's Dam, Gyp and her daughter,
Lily think this game is a complete waste of time and effort. Lily will put a stop to it so *she* can play *her* game with the ball.
 
It starts out with taking the ball away.


Sandie often will look at us for 'help' almost to say
"She's got the ball and won't give it back."


Sometimes the opportunity for a quick grab comes around,
 but Lily is too fast for Sandie to get a good grip on the ball.


Then like Lightening she is off, usually with Sandie right behind her....


...but not today.....


....today, Lily is off like a shot.....


.....with Sandie unable to keep up....


...look at her go!


And yes, she does bring it back, and the whole game starts over
again.
