Splash Dogs - Amber Lee Johnson!

Meet Miss Amber Lee Johnson, a beautiful Chesapeake Bay Retriever!


Amber Lee is the dog-daughter of Shelley Johnson, the publisher of our local paper, Island Times. Although Amber Lee has had no formal training, Splash Dogs seemed a perfect fit for her.


At 9:00 a.m. this morning, there was a practice session for those interested and Amber Lee was first in line!

Look at Miss Amber Lee Johnson go!

Back to mom with her toy...

"Mom, I love it! This is so cool! Thanks!"

Amber Lee stood by patiently, waiting her turn with other dogs...

"Mom, please, is it my turn yet?"

"Okay, Amber Lee. Focus...do your thing, girl!"

Shazam! Amber Lee morphed into Wonder Dog!

She can fly!

Look at that distance! Miss Amber Lee Johnson's jump was recorded at 14'!

Amber Lee has now put a Splash Dog pool on her Christmas list so that she can practice for next year's event.

One last note: Amber Lee was a rescue dog and she would like for me to remind you to support your local Humane Society so that beautiful dogs like her can find forever homes. You may learn about the Humane Society of Pensacola and the pets they have available and the guidelines by clicking HERE.

Face painting and balloon races

The children were having a wonderful time at the Pensacola Seafood Festival today. There were all sorts of activities especially for them at Bartram Park, located across the street from Seville Square.



This little cutie stopped by with her parents to check out the face-painting artists and chose a pretty unicorn design for herself. She'll be the envy of all her friends.


And how cool is this! I've never seen this type of race before.


The kids had a great time!

And if I wasn't such a klutz, I'd enjoy this activity myself! Aren't the balloons (or are they parachutes?) beautiful!

The Pensacola Seafood Festival continues through tomorrow!
