Huntington Beach, Calif.-- Lest you wonder why dogs love the ocean so much, the photograph of a dog splashing in the foamy waves provides insight into the rush it must be for pets who visit Dog Beach in Huntington Beach. The eye doesn't normally catch the subtleties such as the foam texture of the water hitting shore as the sun goes down at HB"s Dog Beach, but when you look at a picture, the joy of the dog's frolicking play says it all.

Some dogs do not like the water at all and they refuse to go explore. But for those dogs that journey forth, Dog Beach is pure delight, and the Pacific Ocean seems right.
