Lana, the SUBMARINE Wonder Dog!

We recently purchased (for about $5) a new collar and leash for Lana that coordinates with the graphics that we are planning for our new van (whom we've named, but we aren't letting that cat out of the bag until we pick her up, though we still have no idea of when that will be).  And we also bought her a new dog tag with our old home phone number (Alea's cellphone) and my new cellphone number.  

So we figured we take a few photos of Lana, showing off her new accessories, which is also a means of sharing our phone numbers without having to worry about them being added to search engine results (the 322 number is our old home phone and Alea's new cellphone, the 960 number is my new cellphone).

In order to get some additional pictures of Lana we took a trip to the Boise River so that she could cool off in the 100 degree heat.  When we got there, the river was probably up a foot or foot and a half higher than when we were there a week or so ago.  

I decided to shoot a video clip of Lana retrieving the ball in the water.  What we got was this short clip of her underwater in a very determined and successful effort to retrieve her ball.  This is all the more remarkable because she is colorblind, and the orange ball is very hard for her to see against the river rock background:

Underwater pursuit!

So there is more proof that she is truly is a Wonder Dog!
