THE DAY WITH DAD

Over the weekend I was gone during the day working the Art Fair. Saturday it rained like crazy and for awhile it pushed people into the Gallery which was good, but after a bit the patrons kind of gave up. Sunday was better weather but a less profitable day.
Anyway the dogs and Dad were home all day together. Sometimes John has an interesting perspective on the dogs and this was one of those times, so I thought I would share his viewpoint:

Ummmmm....salad





Llewis's favorite spot in the whole world, between DadPerson's legs. Looking at the world, totally safe. It makes it hard for DP to walk sometimes, but Llewis is a special boy and gets special treatment.

I am not sure how John engineered this shot




Conley and Nigel and Llewis peering over the backs of his contentious housemates.

Betcha a dog biscuit that Conley started it and it is not serious...not yet. Conley and Nigel tend to start out playing and end up trying to take charge of the entire household. Usually they end up in their crates, but this is clearly play.


The Three Basseteers from an angle more fitting than the ones I usually get.Nigel in the lead, Brudder Llewis stumping along on the right and Conley, wondering what the hell is going on kind of hanging back-- an uncharacteristic moment. He may have been doing something illegal back there. I came home the day these were taken to find all three digging energetically at a huge hole in the middle of the back yard. John said they'd been arguing all day over whose turn it was to dig...




Conley, now taking over the #1 spot in the camera field, as he thinks befits an up and coming Hound....








Nigel posing in his best muscle-hound style. Wish he'd tuck those elbows in because I love his head. I like his tail too, it is thick and very ouchy when he slams it into your shins.
