Sunrise 6:35 am: Sturdy little Aussie pup

The Dawn Joggers opted for a walk around Lake Lagunita this morning, given another busy Sunday schedule. But the abbreviated outing paid off when they met Opal, a four-month-old Australian Shepherd pup, on an excursion with her three-year-old housemate, Jeeves, a tricolor male Aussie. Like Cassie as a pup, Opal is a sturdy little girl, ready for rough and tumble play. What with the lake as fill as it's been since early January, they were soon joined by a group of Labradors ready to 'terrorize' the duck population. No feathers flew.
