Puppy-Dog Eyes

Yearning

There's just something about the loving devotion in my dog's eyes that seems particularly endearing. Without taking into account the cranberry-ginger scone my husband is holding that she is actually fixated on, you would almost believe she is holding her breath, just waiting for a look or a word for direction. It's almost as though she is pledging her every waking moment to be the best companion around. Almost.


The musings of a dog

Something has caught Sophie's attention. I never did figure out what. There were ducks and other water birds near by that she had been eyeing, however, I suspect she heard a splash; perhaps a fish jumping. Her curiosity, interest, and enthusiasm for life never cease to inspire and amaze me. There's a lot that can be learned from a dog's life. They truly know how to enjoy life and revel in the small things, living in the moment. Their approach to life is simple yet precious; something that I can aspire to and hope to achieve.

Cute little puppy! I think she deserves a treat today! :-)

Hehe, thanks! She will absolutely get a treat today. @truth-be-told, she is a spoiled puppy and gets treats pretty much every day! She loves carrots and apples, and absolutely salivates when she hears the peanut butter jar open up!

Aaaah peanut butter...every dogs weakness, LOL!!!
