Be careful what you say...

Even tho he seems like he's always spaced out & doesn't look like he's listening to every word people say about him, Eddie nose.

Waiting in line...

For the America's Next Top Model Dog tryouts. The competition will be fierce.

Trick tips...

How to walk 2 dogs when you're by yourself & don't feel like getting tangled up in their leashes. It works out for Duke too, cause this way he won't be too far away from Eddie...all he has to do is look to his left.

B.F.F....

Duke & Eddie are truely Best Friends Forever! When you find one, you'll usually find the other not too far behind.

A boy & his dogs...

One of my favorite pictures from the last time me & V took Duke & Eddie to Dog Beach. Male bonding at it's finest.

Rescue agent...

Duke will save him from the dangers of the deep.

Extreme sports...

We let Duke & Eddie play another one of their favorite "throw-your-body-in-the-air-violently-while-trying-to-catch-a-toy-tied-to-a-string" game. Even though Eddie rarely comes close to catching the toy in the air, he sure can fling himself pretty high off the ground! He finally caught one at the end.

Paparazzi...

Caught in the act of their daily routine of hanging out by the garage door. I decided to stop shooting before Eddie had a chance to throw something at me for invading his privacy.

New morning ritual...

V recently noticed that Duke & Eddie will go crazy, running back n' forth, chasing a single dragonfly every morning when he's out there feeding them. Not sure if it's the same dragonfly each day or if it's a team of them taking turns teasing the dogs. Do you know how hard it is to take a picture of a moving dragonfly?!?! Over the weekend, I got one lucky shot out of 30.

Looking glass...

Checkin' out a cute blonde thru the waterbowl reflection.

He's so relieved he didn't stay...

Me & Eddie on our way home after the vet visit.

Annual injections...

Duke & Eddie must remember the smell there, because they always want to run away as soon as they step foot into the waiting room. For Eddie's sake, I don't blame him one bit. It's hard to tell a dog that he's not there for another surgery, & just getting his yearly shots.

Sneaking a peek...

Duke looking to see if there's any chance of us letting him into the garage.

What a cute, little castle...

Until Duke pee'd on it! This was during the boys' beach trip with Toby a couple weeks ago. I guess he liked it so much that he had to mark it as "his". Yes, he's a girly pee'er.

Escaping the heat...

By finding the only shade near the garage door. Apparently it was too hot & bright for Duke & Eddie to keep their eyes open.

Basketball buddy picture...

Choose your best friend! They picked each other.

Beach treasure...

Duke found an old, beat-up, deflated basketball left in the sand at Dog Beach. Duke loved every exciting minute of it & you can clearly see it in his eyes. We made him leave it there for the next obsessive-compulsive dog to play with.

Friday nite sunset session...

Me & V took the boys to the beach to play around & enjoy the warm, summer weather. It looks like they liked it a little.
(and of course I had to take my new lens with me to play with!)
