Best outdoor dog pictures (week 4)

Here are the best outdoor dog photos that were submitted this week. This was the last week to officially submit photos for this contest. If there is interest, people can still submit their best outdoor dog photos to me at Lindsay@thatmutt.com, and I will publish them on Sundays when I have enough photos.

Feel free to continue submitting photos, but make sure to put Outdoor Dog Photos as the subject. I get a lot of emails about dogs and sometimes people send me photos of dogs for reasons other than the photo contest. If you put Outdoor Dog Photos as the subject there will be no confusion.

Thank you for visiting my blog! Here are your photos from this week:

Bailey the mutt

Bailey (5 months) likes to climb trees at the lake. She lives in Texas with Isaac Grothe.

Gus the bloodhound

Gus (4), is owned by Apryl DeLancey who writes the blog Women Like Sports. They live in Los Angeles. Apryl said you can see the marine layer in the background. Not smog!

Bee Bee the bull terrier mix

Bee Bee was a resident at the Berkeley-East Bay Humane Society. This photo was taken last January by Jacki Stears. Bee Bee has been adopted, and her owner takes her out for runs. Jacki said she is glad Bee Bee was a part of her life.

Mandi the cairn terrier

Mandi (eight) is owned by my grandpa Erwin in Madelia, Minn. I took this photo of Mandi last weekend after we set up some homemade agility equipment in the backyard.

Fresca the English setter

Fresca (11 months) was adopted by Stephanie Lightner from a humane society. They live in Minneapolis. Fresca has her own blog.

Chelsea the German shepherd

Chelsea (9) is owned by Jen Renninger and her husband Scott. This photo was taken in Hocking Hills (Ohio) State Park in 2007.

Dutch the mutt

Dutch (eight) is owned by Patti Struchynski of Fargo. Dutch enjoys lying in the sunshine on the deck. Patti said occasionally she sees her dog staring into the distance. She knows dogs apparently “live in the moment,” but she wonders if Dutch ever thinks about or misses his previous home.

Honey the golden retriever

Honey (13) does lots of summer camping and winter snow activities with her owner Kristin. In the photo Honey is in the river at Kings Canyon National Park in southern Sierra Nevada.

Stewie the Jack Russell terrier

Stewie (6) and his owner Nancy Hoffman write about agility on their blog. They compete in NADAC and USDAA dog agility.

Biggie the kuvasz

Biggie (21 months) lives in New York City with Ona Wang. Check out their blog Biggie Z.

Stella the pit bull

Stella (about 1) is owned by Susan Adcock. This photo was taken on the walking bridge crossing into Nashville. Susan got Stella at the Tennessee State Fair last September.
Stella has been known to make an appearance at the web site Pitcherlady.

Moose the mutt

Moose is a mixed breed owned by Matt Shehan. They live in Yulee, Fla.

Jake the golden retriever mix

Jake (eight) is owned by Patti Struchynski of Fargo. This is Jake hiking in the Chequameg0n National Forest in northwest Wisconsin. This was a lookout area near the top of a big hill. From this hill you could see for miles.

Jack the mutt

Jack (now 2) is owned by Jen Renninger and her husband Scott. Jack is 3 months old in the photo. He loved hiding under, lying on and eating all of the hosta in the backyard, but he grew out of that habit!

Ruby (left) the pit bull and Bruno the mutt

Ruby (4 months) and Bruno (8 months) live in Glyndon, Minn., with Shane Tommerdahl. Ruby and Bruno love the snow.

Sidney Poitier (left) the poodle and Pepper the Scottie mix

This photo was taken at a dog park in Kenwood, Calif. Pepper (5) is owned by Bonnie Story. Pepper has her own blog, SonomaDoggyBloggy.

Daisy (left) the dachshund mix and Peanut the cairn mix

Daisy and Peanut were rescued by Ali Drew. Peanut was dumped at a kill shelter while pregnant, and Daisy was found wandering some rural streets. She had tags, but her owners wouldn’t pay to get her back. She was in a kill shelter, and picked up by a rescue.

Sophie the English springer spaniel

Sophie (3) is owned by my mom Nancy. I took this photo in February in Menomonie, Wis. Sophie is the fastest dog I know and can race around the yard entertaining herself all day. Ace just stands there and watches her when we visit.
