Missed that photo op

 

     High jinks come on the heels of days of rain and chilly temperatures.  Both dogs and owners are bored.  Is there a better time to play games, then on a rainy day? 

     We played hide the cookies and do you remember this trick?  Gavin and Patty will do almost anything for a cookie.  I’d wind them up and put them through their paces.  Gavin is faster at doing a down than Patty is.  She’s not fond of that trick I think she has issues.  Patty does a pretty stick ‘em up.  Gavin hasn’t her balance but he beats her paws up on doing a down.

     Patty sense of smell is sharper than Gavin’s but I think his vision is better than hers is.  Gavin easily frustrates where Patty has patience.  Patty gets wild and hucklebutts on the couch while Gavin dashes from kitchen to living room and back again.

     Finally, tired out Gavin settled next to me in my chair and soon was snoring.  Patty hopped into her Daddy’s chair, rolled upside down with paws in the air and soft snores soon came from that direction.  Dang it the camera was in the kitchen and Gavin was asleep with his head on my shoulder.  I wasn’t getting that picture.

  1. Awww, maybe not a picture to share, but you will alway have the memory. I missed many a photo op myself, but the antics of my animals I recall with great vividness and can relate it to others like it just happened. To me that’s as good if not better than a still life photo because my mind stores it as a permanent video:)
