Dogs at Dusk

This lady is exercising her dogs on the beach. She's in front of the private beaches, but the entire area along the water is open to all. I'm not at all sure she has the right to exercise her dogs here - there are three special beaches which allow dogs and I don't believe this isn't one of them. However it's dusk and this is France and rules are made to be broken! She wears a wide strong belt contraption around her waist and the three Huskies drag her along, as you can see in the photo below. Her fourth dog runs free. This was one joyous lady with four very happy dogs.

    Nice post, Jilly. Interesting about the beaches and the dogs on them. Who cleans up after that many dogs?

    Abraham, if the lady is at all conscientious, she should be cleaning up after her own dogs. Had a fleeting thought and astounding vision: what happens if the dogs decide to go for a romp when the belt is still attached to the woman? We once had a husky which was the only dog we had I never really cared for since he was a runner, killed cats and brought them home as "gifts", climbed our fences designed to keep him in, and terrorized the neighborhood. We're lucky we weren't sued!

    Jilly I'm sure the dogs aren't supposed to be here. In Australia this lady would be in trouble but you're right, this is France ! Ah !

    You need to be pretty fit to run with huskies attached to your belt. I saw a man do it regularly near where I used to live and it was no joke!

    An enjoyable photo. I love to see owners enjoying there pets and especially dogs enjoyed the outdoors. And I'll bet anyone as prepared as this lady is will do the responsible thing and clean up after her pets.
