Thanks for so many nice comments, and to Asta for taking and posting those great pictures! And no, you cannot have her, even if she HAS been moping around the house since we've been back! It took her a while to sleep off that all-night party!  :D :D :D  Doesn't she look a little drowsy in the dog show pics from Sunday? With that show collar on, she almost looked like she belonged there!  ;)

I also swore she would never go swimming voluntarily, especially when she wouldn't come in by ME! I guess I need to grow more fur and run around on all four legs! :D ;D ;D :D

I told my mom about her swimming, and she asked if I threw her in!

I don't know, MaryAnne, peer pressure has more bang to it than it might seem at first ;D

Ya might have to get Xhabbo drunk first so she forgets her senses.  You just don't understand the power of the Evie genes.  Abhorrence of the water is a strong trait share by most Evie get.  They've been around a strange few RR and non-RR friends that go in the water, and the peer pressure has yet to lure them in!   ;D

I think Isis, Chaos and Dodo must have manipulated Tonks into going in the water.  That is just crazy!  She must need Xhabbo there to keep her on the right path of not getting wet.   ;)

Did I mention I like nice dry clean Ridgebacks so I never encourage them to be water dogs...brings back too many memories of stinky, wet, muddy Golden Retriever....very messy.

Excellant photo's!

Tonks does have a very beautiful head and that show lead looks just right for her.

It's good to see so many RR's running together and enjoying life.

Tonks is very cute young girl ... I like your photos from your vacations ... the photo from black hills of SD is like you have been in Slovenia :) ... very similar landscape as in my environs.
And Asta posted astonishing photos of your beautiful girl ... I really like her face :) and her long legs :)
