Frankie Suave knows that many of you think his primary job is to lay around and be, well, suave, but he has many big brother duties.

Scanning the south field.

From the outside looking in, Frankie’s life may look pretty comfortable. The only dog to sleep in the human bed every night. Sprawled underneath Hu-Dad’s feet all day in the study. Sunning on the deck on cool days and sleeping in the shade on warm days. Sure, he has those two pesky little brothers, but that’s just a detail.

Our brown-eyed boy wants everyone to know how hard he works. Twice as hard as he used to even, because now his patrols expand into the senior side of the yard. To avoid those two pesky brothers, Frankie has been known to sneak over to the senior deck for a lengthy nap while the youngsters have no idea where he went. But don’t worry, on either side of the yard, he is always working his most important job.

Where are those pesky rabbits?

P.S. – This last photo also shows the open gate, the one we have mentioned in our latest games with Typhoon.
