Dickinson Falls

Fundy National Park's Dickinson Falls, New Brunswick, Canada

A most beautiful and protected area, much like a rain forest, perhaps it is. One of the prettiest places I have been in a long time. The dogs liked it too!

But between the rain, the mist from the falls & water all around, and the wooden walkways & stairs, it was a very slippery place for fast dogs who would prefer to tear around together, with no thought to tearing themselves up! So it was leashes all around most of the time. Oh - and lots of stops for photographs!


Dickinson Falls


L-R, Jiggy, Cutter, Bungee


The folks who have helped the most over the years to make all of our dreams with the dogs, possible! Our friends & traveling companions - Mr. & Mrs. Mairs


OH! Wait a minute, where have all the women gone?
These guys look like trouble!

After a good long hike, we finally arrive at the falls view. Bungee was quite interested in the water below, as you can see her with her head between the railings looking over the side (and mom holding her securely on the other side!)


Another bunch of troublemakers no doubt...


One scene like this after another, all the way up to the falls.


Up stream from the falls, and more trouble makers! :-)) ....hmmm, they have familiar looking dogs...perhaps we know these people/grin/ Actually there were several people at this lovely swimming hole by the time we made our way, don't know how they missed the picture? Cynthia gets the spotlight! The swimming hole doesn't seem to make it into the photo either. Hmmm... But the dogs all enjoyed it and a little break here, then back to the leashes for the slippery hike out.


Happy Training!...It's About Love!
