Can't catch me!

Wrooo, everydoggy and kitty! The Girl and I went outside on Monday, for my kind of photoshoot.


(By the way, my good furend, Dozer, asked in comments about my last post if I was getting treats in return for poses. In fact, I was getting some very delicious turkey jerky. I just hate posing, and I hate it more everytime she makes me do it! I figure that if I pout and scowl enough, she'll give up. I think I'm more stubborn than she is, anyway.)


So The Girl decided yesterday that we'd go out and get some "action shots". Which means that she's trying to capture me in all my running glory. And not doing a very good job at it, because she knows next to nothing about taking pictures. But I had a lot of fun, which is really all that matters, right?


Here I am, running away from The Girl. Sorry it's blurry.




Another shot of me running away. Check out my ears flying!



This is a shot of me, when I'm waaaayyyyy outside of the frame. Too slow, Girlie!



And her timing here isn't much better. Can't catch me! I'm the Gingerbread Dog! (Yummmm, I think I would like gingerbread. I wonder if The Girl will make me some.)



At least here she shows some of my way-cool motion a little bit better, even though it's kind of blurry, too.






And here's one last shot of me running away. I notice that it's blurry, too. No gingerbread for The Girl!


The Girl would also like to apologize for the sad state of the yard. I don't really know what she means by that, but she said that there is no better way to realize how the yard really looks than to see it through the photo editor (which she really only uses to crop and rotate).


We do read the comments that come as they come into our email inbox. We just are not managing very well to actually reply to them. We're hoping to get around to read everypuppy and kitty's blog later tonight, or tomorrow night at the latest. I'm not sure how to train The Girl to do this more often. Positive reinforcement is only getting me so far. I wonder if she'd be more trainable if she didn't have opposable thumbs???

Saturday in the backyard





Hi, everypuppy and kitty, it's Dannan here. Thanks to evfurryone for your kind words and support about The Roomie's brother. He's not out of the woods yet, and when he is, he'll have a long recovery ahead of him. It helps to know we've got such good friends out there, thinking good thoughts.


The Girl is back and forth between needing to keep busy and not being able to concentrate. So in the next couple of days, we may make it to all our friends' bloggies, and we might not. But we wanted to do something cheery today, and The Girl took some pictures in the backyard.


I asked her to take a picture of my favfurrite tree. There are almost always birdies in this tree, and sometimes even squirrels!




Ha ha, you can even see my hind-self in the bottom right hand corner!



This is me at the foot of that tree. Around the trunk of the tree are some bushes and a little evergreen-type tree. It's in the middle of our backyard, and The Girl calls it the Island. I love my Island!





This is me making a funny face.



The Girl says she doesn't know what I'm doing with my lips in this picture.



Here are some other pictures of me enjoying my backyard:





















I've saved the best for last! The Girl got this picture of me while I was running:






The Girl says she really wishes that we had access to a video camera, because she says I am beWROOtiful when I run. Ha ha, look at this close up and check me out. BeWROOtiful, for sure! BOL!





We'll be back as and when we can. Love to you all, and wrooooooooooooo.
