My Pack

My pack, July 28, 2007

It’s been quite a while since I’ve posted any new pictures of the dogs and, since we’ve lost three dogs in fifteen months, my pack has undergone quite a transformation. You can click on the above for a larger picture. I haven’t done any re-touching to get rid of the reflections behind their eyes.

Tally (left) is now the dowager of the pack. She’s slowed down noticeably since this time last year. I think that grief is at least one of the causes. She’s looking and acting like an old lady these days.

Nola and Will are gawky adolescents. Nola (center) is, well, a very busy girl. She’s always into things. Everything. Nothing is safe from her no matter where it is. She’s completely out of coat right now. My wife and I think she’s nekkid. If you’re not aware of it, there’s a difference between “naked” and ”nekkid”. “Naked” means you have no clothes on. “Nekkid” means you have no clothes on and you’re up to something. Nola is nekkid.

Will (right) is a tremendously endearing dog. Everybody loves Will. He’s incredibly well-behaved, so much so that you scarcely ever need to tell him to do something different than whatever he’s doing. That’s fortunate, since he’s likely to ignore what you tell him, anyway.

  • That’s an absolute cute overload! (With teeth…)

  • I’m struck by how wolf-like they look, and how indefatigable. Their presence must be very reassuring.

    Nola even looks like trouble looking for a place to happen! Around our house we call that a gleam in the eye.

  • You have no idea.
