Ying and Yang... Again

:)

Rain, Rain, Rain...

It's been raining non-stop for about a week now, so everything's looking extremely green and beautiful. I gave the dogs a wash yesterday because there was finally a break in the rain, but today it's as hot as ever, so lots of swims for poor little Dusty.

Some of Dusty's Tricks!

I've been training Dusty to do some tricks lately, and I've just started teaching him to beg. It's so cute!

He does get a bit excited at times when he really wants the treat, but I'm working on it. :)

Dusty's Trip to the Beach

We went down to the beach today. Dusty has no idea what to do with himself. One moment he would want to run back up the stairs back to the car, the next he would want to go and dig up the entire beach.

Here's what happened... In Dusty's view.

Right, we're here now... What the heck is this that I'm walking on?!?!?!

Please no, please no, PLEASE NOOOOOO!!!!

Eeep!

I insist I will never touch that stuff again...

Help?

Just keep swimming, swimming, swimming...

I hear a voice... I'M COMING BROTHER!

So, what's your name?

Brother, I read you! I'll be back.

Swimming!

In 37 degree heat, it's hard to not go for a swim. That's why we taught Dusty to!

Lemme out, lemme out!

I bet he secretly loves it, though...

 Sorta, maybe, not really?

 And then there's always the aftermath of a crazy wet dog...

 ...and a cute wet dog.

Jock Portrait

I thought I might make an attempt of drawing a portrait of Jock, and it turned out pretty good if I may say so myself.

The picture was taken with my webcam so it isn't too high quality, but you get the idea of what it looks like.
This is the reference picture I used.

I know there's always room for improvement, so I don't mind if anyone wants to give me some drawing tips.

Destruction

Dusty has been chewing up all his kennels (he's been through three already) and lately we thought he couldn't defeat this one. We were wrong.

 Luckily he didn't get stuck. He could easily get in and out, which isn't really great for night time...


 Jock is moulting at the moment. This is the fur we got from around his butt.

Yin and Yang.

Safe Keeping

You can never be too safe with where you keep your toys

Can you Jock?
