Farrah the forest dog

We just came back from our 2nd canoe trip with Farrah and she's turning out to be quite the nature dog. She's great in the canoe, likes to keep watch of the camp and loves all the cool stuff to do in the forest. She hasn't taken to swimming much yet, and is content just getting her legs wet. But she will lay down in the water, just not swimming laps at the moment. She met her first lake trout in the canoe, but in a strange turn of events didn't get to eat it! A snapping turtle came and stole it off the shore before we could do anything with it! She also hasn't quite figured out how to eat the blueberries off the bushes, and prefers taking them out of the pail that you are putting your picked bounty into. Farrah is almost 1 year old now, and is starting to get some new markings around her face. There is a very prominent dark line above and below her eyes, which has been getting darker over the past few weeks. I've tried to include some extra photos that highlight her new markings.
