When horse pastures need irrigating Shadow likes to "help," because she loves the sensation of water splashing on her face. She climbs irrigation posts, gets wet and drops to the ground. And again, leaps in the air and gets thoroughly soaked. And has a ball.

1. Awww, she is clearly having a wonderful time. I don't think I have ever seen a dog jump that

high. Wow!

[George McGovern]

2. She gets a running start, niyad, and challenges gravity. Thank You!

3. That is just AMAZING!

Are you sure Shadow isn’t part kangaroo?

That’s one athletic high jumper you’ve got there! And what great shots you got of her in mid-air!

Funny how dogs love any kind of water except bath water!

4. Wow....Shadow is a true athlete!

These photos are amazing. I have never seen a dog jump like this, though dogs catching Frisbees come close.

Shadow is so much fun to watch. I am always glad that you share your photos with us.
