He’s such a little goofball! I noticed a little bit ago that he was napping in the corner – with the curtain on his face! Haha! He looked so adorably cute – my 120 pound ‘cutie pie’!
Now, Puppy has never been a very agreeable photo subject. Upon discovering my intentions, he will either get up and walk towards me, attempting to ‘wet nose’ the camera – or he will just get up and leave the room!
Given these tricky circumstances, I went into the dining room to turn on and zoom the camera, so that he wouldn’t hear it. I then sneakily came back into the office, making sure not to actually step into the living room, where the beast lay resting peacefully – with a curtain on his face! Ha!
With my camera at the ready, and fully expecting him to jump up and leave – I quickly snapped this pic…

I was so excited that my subject lay ‘undisturbed’ that I hurriedly zoomed a little more and shot this picture:

Now, so far, it’s just been ‘adorably cute’, as I said before – and just an ‘Aww…you’re so silly’ giggle type of moment. Then – I checked out the pictures on the camera! There was one thing I was not seeing with my ‘naked eye’ – the goofball was awake and looking at me! When I saw that, that is when I started cracking UP! My sweet boy is five and a half years old and he has never, ever done that! He is the most ornery picture subject ever!! I mean – EVER!
Dogs are so awesome – that was the perfect stress-reliever for the middle of my day! I love that damn dog!
I’m not so sure how he feels about me right about now, though:

2Thanks, Deb!
Yeah, it’s too funny that an ol’ lazy dog like that wouldn’t normally lie there not caring! Haha!
