Sahraa in her element

We were getting ready to leave in search of the dunes again, but it was obvious Sahraa wanted to come. This was amazing because although she doesn’t put up a fight to get in the car now, since she understands we can go fun places like parks, she has never simply decided she wants to go for a car ride. So she came with us, and we thought since she’s a Kuwaiti desert dog, being in the desert might remind her of her roots. She didn’t much like the sand, though, and kept licking her paws.

She was, however, a star attraction, and people kept stopping and gawking at her, sometimes asking questions, then with everybody in the car waving at her, finally driving away.

Reckless driving, posted earlier:

Beautiful portrait of her and the red sand is the perfect backdrop. She is so fortunate to have you as her owner. She looks very happy and healthy. ~BV~

I love the look on her face, and the fact that she doesn't seem to mind being photographed!! However, for a desert dog she is not living up to her background if she doesn't like sand :-)) VV

I wish her to do that in the snow, just like Sasha, another PBase lady's dog. They loooove snow!

Wowwwww! Sahraa is charmingly very comfortable, and seems unwilling to move there !!! Splendid catch, Helen. V
