Waiting Patiently for a Swim by tawaslake

We all know how much labs love the water, well this mama lab named Lexie is trained to stay out of this lake by our home until we are ready for her to go in as there are so many fishermen out there that get annoyed by her (and her daughter’s) splashing about, LOL.

CHEWY IS SO AFFECTIONATE by SMOKEYDOGSOCKS

A FRIEND OF MINE, THAT I’VE KNOWN SINCE I WAS A TEENAGER, STOPS BY THE HOUSE EVERY NOW AND THEN AND WE BREAK OUT THE MEDICINAL HERB AND HAVE A SMOKE. SO, WHILE I WAS PREPARING TO ROLL THE DUBIOUS DUBEY, MY FRIEND GRABBED MY KODAK EASYSHARE Z710 AND STARTED TAKING PHOTOS OF MY KIDS SITTING ON MY BED. SO, WHEN I SAW THIS SHOT, I LASSOWED IT FROM THE SHOT IT WAS ORIGINALLY IN AND CUT IT. THEN I WENT INTO MY DIGITAL ABSTRACT FILE AND PULLED UP AN IMAGE THAT STARTED OUT AS FUNGOUS ON THE SURFACE OF A POND OUT ON GRIZZLY ISLAND IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA. I PASTED THE IMAGE OF ME AND MY KIDS IN A POSSITION THAT IT ACTUALLY FIT WITH THE BACKGROUND IMAGE. I DON’T OFTEN GET SHOTS LIKE THIS OF ME AND MY KIDS, BECAUSE I’M USUALLY THE ONE BEHIND THE CAMERA AND TO SET UP THE CAMERA WITH A SHUTTER TIMER, I DON’T ALWAYS GET THE IMAGE I WANT AND BY THE TIME I’VE TAKEN 4 OR 5 TRIES, I’M EXHAUSTED SO I GIVE UP. BUT, I COULDN’T RESIST THIS SHOT BECAUSE, “CHEWY IS SO AFFECTIONATE”, HE LOVES HIS ATTENTION, GETTING AND GIVING. WHEN I GIVE THEM TREATS AND I ASK CHEWY IF HE LOVES ME, HE LEANS FORWARD AND GIVES ME A LITTLE PECK ON THE LIPS OR NOSE. AT LEAST HE KEEPS BIG SLOPY TONGUE LICKS TO A MINIMUM. CHEWY IS A 75% SIBERIAN, 25% TIMBER WOLF AND SASHA IS A MIX OF BLACK LAB AND GERMAN SHEPHERD. CHEWY WILL GET TO BE ABOUT 80 POUNDS BY THE TIME HE IS FULLY GROWN, RIGHT NOW HE IS ONLY 20 MONTHS OLD. SASHA IS ALREADY OVER 4 YEARS OLD AND SHE DIDN’T GET BIG AT ALL. IN FACT, SHE STAYED SMALL FOR THE BREED DOGS THAT SHE IS. I THINK SHE MAY HAVE BEEN THE RUNT OF THE LITTER. BUT, THAT’S OK, HER SIZE HASN’T STOPPED HER FROM DOING THE SAME THINGS CHEWY DOES,,,,EXCEPT FOR MAYBE JUMPING UP ONTO THEIR DESK. SHE USES A RAMP, UNTIL I MOVE IT SO SHE WON’T SIT ON THE DESK AND BARK AT PASSING CATS. SHE GOES NUTS WHEN SHE SEES CATS,,,,I MEAN N. U. T. S., NUTS.
