Stanzie goes berry picking

Stanzie's favorite thing in the whole world (besides George the Lad and chasing woodland creatures)
is BLACKBERRIES!
Stanzie knows when they have reached the peak of perfection. When they are perfectly ripe and ready to be pulled from the vine.
 
We have tried to show Stanzie for a week or so now, how many wild blackberries were visible on our walks. But she would have no part of it...they just weren't ready yet.
Today was the day...perfectly ripe. She picks her own, she does not want help.
 
So, the walk takes about 30 minutes longer. Stanzie has to get full...BOL
Gosh, they're delish! 
Happy Picking!

  2. Hi Wyatt,

    That is a pretty good thing Stanzie has going. I assume you guys have the black burries growing wild all along your walks. Wow....I wish we had that. All we have is poison ivy and thistle.

    Tell her to eat some for me.

  9. I'm very envious..... I don't have berries on any of my walks! I have found edibles berries in my own garden...and strip the bushes!!!

    PeeS: My mum wants to tell your mom that yes we grow our orchids outside - they are in four plastic pots, but one flowers really well, one flowers sparingly, and the other two just poke their tongues out at mum!! She has tried moving them about - they are in winter sun and we tuck them away in our hot dry summer....under a tree.

  19. Mmmmm, blackberries! Ours have been long gone. They ripen much earlier here in the hot & humid South, plus the deer eat them all! BOL Hey, does Stanzie get a tummy ache from all those blackberries???

  22. OH Stanzie you lucky hound. Blackberry season was over about 4 weeks ago. We are very jealous!

  23. Hello - found you through the blog hop!
    Wow, never seen a dog getting at the blackberries - there are tonnes around here but mine never clock them as something to eat. Eddie used to eat tomatoes off the wine though... Maybe its about them figuring out what is nice.

  24. Oscar loves blueberries and raspberries, but I don't think he's tried blackberries yet. That's a pretty good deal Stanzie's got - eating blackberries to her heart's content!
