Better picture of the dogs in the spring flowers

I got a better picture of them two in the dandelions. I took two pictures yesterday, in one, Pip looked good, in the other, Brady looked good. I took Brady's facial features only off the picture where he was looking into the camera and placed it over his other face in the picture above, where he was looking away, using Adobe Photoshop. Now that I told you, if you click on it to see the larger view, you may be able to tell that I worked this picture some, but from far away, I think it's looking pretty good.

Above that is a picture of Pippin looking miserable next to my tulips and one cute one of him sniffing them. The only photoshopping I did was to remove his leash from each picture. Also I removed their leashes from the picture of them both with the dandelions.

I finally saw my new solar lights in the garden last night. They sure shine very bright, great bargain at $4 a piece.

Adventures from the dog park, part III

This is what dogs do when we get back from the dog park. Yesterday was the first extremely perfect day of the year, maybe even just a tad warm since there was not one cloud in the sky. I think it was 72 or so, great day to take them to the park. Our dogs are not used to heat however and were huffing and panting 5 minutes in. After 20 minutes, Pippin sort of sat beneath the park bench in the shade for a while, while Brady JUMPED on every single human being in the park. No one seemed to care. Pippin played with the dogs, maybe a bit too much with one dog, but overall did a good job. There were three mini-schnauzers there, including Pippin. Never seen another Bichon there.

The funniest dog of the day has to go to the poor Westie, who apparently loves MUD! He found the one mud-pit at the back of the park and did nothing, and I mean nothing, but run back and forth, back and forth, back and forth until he was completely black! His owner laughed but at the same time, was a bit annoyed at his suddenly soaked-black-Westie. That dog must have run through the mud 25 times before his owner scooped him up and took him home to bathe.

Pip detests water and mud, he's a priss. Brady however, adores it. Thankfully he never found the mud-pit or we'd have a black bichon today.

Spring time Puppies

Well it's not the greatest picture I've ever taken in my life, but it's not bad either. The spring flowers (weeds) were too lovely to pass up. We can't grow much here, but we excel at growing all things weeds. Dandelions are pretty enough weeds though. Think I'll try to take some better pictures of them in the 'flowers' today later on. You can click on the image to see it larger.

I don't think I shall ever see, a dog as lovely...as me!

What can I say? They love to pose!
