The swirl is good for something...

Duke in the line-up...perfect position.

At least I still have this spot...

Duke took Eddie's cushion for the nite, so Eddie had to find a way to still have a piece of his own to rest his head on.

Can you touch your nose with your tongue?

Eddie can!

How to instantly get 2 best friends...

Just sit down and eat lunch in our backyard!

Eddie's defense mechanism...

This time it was Eddie who spotted me first. Maybe he's getting tired of being constantly stalked for his picture. The downside of being a superstar celebrity.

Strange...

Not something I would expect to see poolside. Looks like someone was snoring a little too loud last nite.

Turquoise...

A color that looks good on them! Eddie doesn't mind it, but Duke doesn't seem to fancy that color. Probably a bit too girly for him.

Overdue...

For another bath. Eddie's lookin' a bit dirty under the collar.

Singers never rest...

This is what happens when fire truck or police sirens go by our house. Eddie likes to "sing along" to the sound by boo'ing until the noise is gone. Check out how excited Duke is to have such an unexpected surprise performance!

Morning kitchen shady-ness...

He wasn't there when I was making my breakfast. But a split second later, this is what I saw that made my heart skip a 1/2 of a beat. Kinda cute that he's waiting for me to say "Good Morning", but soooo very creepy at times.

In the impact zone...

Eddie's reaction to being at the wrong place at the wrong time. Duke's tail can be a painful weapon if you're not in the safe zone.

Stalker-azzi...

They always catch me in the act. Even if I only open the curtains a teeny tiny bit. First it was Duke who found me out, but I guess Eddie's radar was on and he somehow knew what was going on even from inside his house! They're good!

Eddie bits...

A big yawn, a silly smirk & his winter coat slowly saying goodbye.

Bird's eye view...

What Duke does in order to bark at the neighbors over the fence. Hopefully V's roof design can hold up to the constant 60 lb dog jumping on it daily.

Undercoat overload...

Eddie's winter coat was so thick on his neck that you could see the stress cracks.

Profiles...

They like to pose this way sometimes. For no reason at all.

Distraction...

I don't think Duke looked to happy when he found out I was taking pictures of him during his "bonding moment" with his lovely squeaky ball.

What's grosser than gross?

When Eddie scratches his ear with his hind leg, then sniffs it after to inspect what he found! Ew! He's the Booger of the dog world.

Nite series...

Did I forget to mention that there is no time restriction for this sport, too? According to Duke's rules, daylight or not, it's always "Game on!"

Entertaining himself...

Duke is back to playing his favorite game...1 player, 1 ball. And I have to mention that it's winter and the water is freezing! There is no off season for this sport in Duke's world.

Unconventional...

Eddie likes to ham it up for the camera when he's in the right mood. But he does have the weirdest, sloppy and most awkward positions he poses in.

Rewards...

Every time I make the boys sit, they automatically think they're getting a treat for doing so. And when they don't get anything, they get so antsy that it's hard for them to stay still. Nevermind the fact that Eddie has a form of doggie A.D.D.

Peek-a-boo...

I see you! Duke's teeth showing thru his tennis ball, jaw chattering craziness.

Learning to share...

Cause when you're thirsty, you just can't wait for the other one to finish.

The look of love...

For the milkbone that I'm holding.

What?! It's hard work!

Licking your paws can be an energy draining experience.

Right over left...

Seems to be the most popular style right now.
