Crossed Paws
As soon as Hu-Dad settles into his chair to start work each morning, we settle into our critical role as co-workers. Sure, it might look like we’re just napping, but we are providing support and supervision throughout the day. Notice how Frankie’s crossed paws inspired the Hu-Dad to pick up the camera. We’re working breeds. Don’t try this at home.

Face Of Regret
Hu-Dad was slicing some squash for dinner Tuesday night. Roscoe, a quite polite canine in the kitchen, asked if he could try a piece. Hu-Dad agreed. Based on the face of regret, we can conclude that Roscoe is not a fan of squash.

The Royal Look Of Denial
As shocking as this might be, Hu-Dad suspected His Royal Highness Little Prince Typhoon Phooey might have been causing some mischief. Something about years and years of history. So how did the Little Wonder respond to the accusations? With a Royal Look of Denial, of course.

A Handsome Boom Boom
Landon was up to his usual tricks, bouncing and boom booming around the yard while Typhoon and Roscoe wrestled and Frankie found a quiet corner to snooze. Then, when you least expect it, the Boomster came to a halt, struck a handsome pose, and did his regal thing. Don’t worry, he was back to being his normal goofy self two seconds after this photo.

Spying On The Neighbors
Unlike the old saying, the grass is certainly greener on our side of the fence, but that doesn’t keep our curiosity down about what others might be up to. Roscoe enjoys spying on the neighbors and makes no apologies for it.

A Promise Is A Promise…Or Not
Hu-Dad said we could walk on the new sod without leashes if we gave our sacred promise to behave. We looked him right in the eye and said we would. Of course, he should have known it was April Fools’ Day, so what do you think happened next? Click the link for the answer.

Disgruntled Model
The sod is almost rooted enough for full-scale Siberian games to begin, but Hu-Dad insists we wear our leashes for a few more days. After delivering that news, he asked Roscoe to pose pretty for a few photos. The reply suggests we might have a disgruntled model. Looks like a work stoppage has begun.

Pesky Camera
His Royal Highness Little Prince Typhoon Phooey tried to take his Royal Nap, but something kept interrupting. To be clearer, someone—the Hu-Dad—kept interrupting with that pesky camera and asking for a smile. No smile was offered, but a Royal Scowl was given.

Spring Grass Sensation
The look from His Royal Highness Little Prince Typhoon Phooey tells the story as well as we can. We were patrolling the backyard and inspecting the new sod when the Little Man decided he had found the perfect spot to enjoy the spring grass sensation. He didn’t want to move, go inside, or do anything other than wallow.

Boom Boom Bunny
There we were just minding our own business during our walk when an attack rabbit pounced on us and Landon defended us from harm. Wait, that might not be quite accurate. Maybe, just maybe, the rabbit was minding his own business when a certain Herd of Sibes on their morning walk might have suggested he come join us. Either way, despite Landon’s best convincing effort, the Boom Boom Bunny declined our offer and took off for the woods. How rude.

Keeping Pace With The Youngsters
We walk twice a day, every day. Rain or shine, warm weather or cold. A total of five to six miles daily. A senior canine would certainly be allowed to skip if they wished, but Frankie Suave refuses. He’s been a member of The Herd for ten-and-a-half years, so he’s probably twelve or maybe even thirteen, but he is keeping pace with the youngsters every day.

Watching Our Six
We mentioned just the other day how focused Boom Boom is on our walks, but we did leave out an important detail. He is acutely aware of any movement near us and keeps a close eye on things, particularly watching our six in case anyone comes from behind. He’s so attuned to his surroundings that other walkers have even noticed and jokingly referred to him as our radar unit. With Landon in our Herd, nothing is going to sneak up on us.
