Eko flopped to the ground. Penny lazily chewed a stick from the side of her mouth. All that was missing was a tumbleweed
I knew both pups had energy to burn, but neither of them showed any signs of life. At which point I looked at myself lounging with my feet up. Hi, I’m Will. And I’m a hypocrite.
Dogs are the most social of companions, they’re the ones who notice our every subtle change in mood and expression. Of course they picked up on my attitude and adopted it! A symphony needs a conductor when it’s time to play and the same is true for pups. So I picked up my baton and called the players to the stage.
As soon as I got up, so did the pups. And when I signaled Penny…
She rose to the occasion!
When Penny was unable to reach a higher note, I called in the more experienced player
This guy knows how to crescendo
In no time at all the orchestra was playing together in harmony
Bravo! Take a bow!
I’m glad Eko and Penny have each other, but I also appreciated the reminder as to what my responsibilities are as Human-in-Chief. I should never ask something of my pups that I’m not also willing to lead them through myself!
thats adorable – double the cuteness – Eko is such a good big brother and you are a pretty good Human-in-Chief – ok a really really good one!
Bravo! (and Brava! to Penny)
Well said! You are currently making it very easy for me to become a better ‘human-in-chief’!
that is a good lesson for all of us! Mainly ME!
Very true. We pick up on the energy around us and usually behave accordingly.
I think I’d better show this post to my person. She needs to get up and play with me.
I loved Penny jumping for that stick. Great photo!
Everyone else might be napping but the 2 kids are still going 100 miles an hour.
I love those action shots. How did you manage to play and take a picture at the same time?
Stunning pictures Bravo to the conductor and indeed the players in the pit! hugs Fozziemum xx
What have you done that helped eko& penny have a great relationship?
flying Penny :o) it’s so great that they have each other now, two pups=double joy :o)
So sweet!! Donna is really mellow and I think she’d be pretty good with puppies judging from her interaction with boisterous puppies at the pet cafes. But it’s the human here who to be practical probably does not have the energy to manage dog no. 2. Wish I do though. Must be good to have the company at home. Lucky Eko and Penny!
I love your posts:-)
Great photos! And often a similar story in our house – if we want Moses and Alma to go outside and burn some energy, it’s often up to us to kick it off and get them excited about it. And, I mean, it’s fun for everyone!
That was great.
That was some great music playing and jumping. Very interesting the way you did this post sweet Will….enjoyable read and great pictures as always. Hugs and nose kisses
