Long-Dangerous Tails

with Tina the Terror!

Tina is a big dog trapped in a little dog’s body. Tina’s motto: why go after a dinky ball when there is a giant stick being waved in front of me?!

She did finally notice the ball and grabbed it and tugged like crazy with the same type of moves that Syd has. Tina was a good practice model for Eric.

Smooth moves for Batman.

One of my favorite parting shots.

“What do you mean your moving to the city? You ungrateful brat—hit the road!”

Warning. You might think you recognize the people in these photos, but you do not. This is not that guy you call Gustavo. We have not seen a Gustavo.  We were all at church when that Gustavo guy went missing. That is our story and WE are sticking with it.

Special thanks to Scarlett and Michael for taking such great pictures for us!

Other than Kayla and Garbo, these dogs have never done bitework before. Oh, and don’t bother asking Scarlett or Michael about that Gustavo guy—they don’t know him either!

Da Batling was a Bratling today. Oh how he loves to torment Kayla!

He is playing the “get your feet” game.

You don’t scare me with those big toofs. I got toofs too.

Ot-oh! The big-bad wolf has gotten up…

Run for my life! She’s gonna eat me!!

Nah—just kiddin’.

From Lou and Shelley:
“Here are pictures of Hermus- Alta-Tollhaus Louie. He is so handsome and just a wonderful baby. We love him so much. Have a wonderful holiday season!”
Hermus is from the L-litter Xbox – Kayla

Yesterday I told Julie that I missed a true Nikon moment.  Kayla & Batman went with me to get the mail – Kayla on lead, Batman free.  Before I got too close to the dirt road, I told Kayla plotz. She & Batman both downed in the field, side-by-side, and stayed that way until I returned from the mailbox and said, “break.”  Of course, no camera.

So today I took my point & shoot along—just in case. Yep, they both downed, only before I returned Batman sat and stayed that way until I said, “break.” They are at least 60′ from the mailbox. Kayla is an excellent trainer—she’s doing a pretty good job with a pup that is 9 weeks & 3 days old!

I have a photo of them both down but it isn’t as cute as this one.  Oh yes, and the Ear Fairy came last night!
