Soccer Dachshund - Go Germans!


The girls are taking a soccer camp this week and I went for the last hour after work and errands. I made a quick trip home to change, get drinks and Liesel.

Well, Liesel wanted to get right out on the field with the kids and chase that big ball. After the instructions/play were over, the girls had their balls and would throw them for her. She went wild chasing the balls, putting her front paws up on them and kept trying to get a good grip on the balls with her mouth to no avail. It was hysterical watching her running around.

When she got to the car, she was panting like crazy so we won't be repeating that again this week as it's too hot for that.

The girls loved their first night of soccer camp. Katya loves soccer and anything to do with it and was so excited when her mom told her about the camp. Natalia really didn't have any choice but to go to it as her mother signed her up. She discovered how much fun soccer is and really liked it. Of course, this meant a trip to the sporting goods store earlier in the afternoon for cleats, shin guards and soccer socks (pink of course).

It's great for the girls to be outside involved in physical activity.

Liesel will wait to chase a soccer ball until the weather cools down. I'm going to have to buy her her own soccer ball.

  3. That must have been so fun - seeing her out there chasing balls!

    Zhen and Ilya have done a couple of soccer camps, but somehow there was no charm in soccer at all for Zhen. He IS doing "American football" this fall, though, as it is called in our household.

  12. I'm really loving the theme/design of your website. Do you ever run into any browser compatibility issues? A number of my blog readers have complained about my blog not operating correctly in Explorer but looks great in Chrome. Do you have any ideas to help fix this problem?
