Ah, the life of a dog.
Clover starts his day like most of us, reluctant to get out of bed.
But for him, the day is full of naps.
I find him napping in several places throughout the day.
This is Clover’s favorite chair. We think it’s because it coordinates so well with his overall “look.” If you’re sitting in this chair and get up — even for a moment, he’ll kindly jump up and keep it warm till you get back.
A few times during the day, he will demand to be released to the backyard. He likes to run in circles and will, when necessary, do what we call “the poop dance.” Apparently relieving himself is profound with ceremony.
If he’s really bored, he’ll eavesdrop on conference calls in the loveseat outside my office.
Dinnertime finds Clover in the optimal position for catching anything that may fall. He may look silly but under all that fluff, he’s a devious dude.
Evening comes and Clover demonstrates what I call “freestyle napping,” usually at the bottom of the stairs so he can catch us quickly when it’s time to head to bed.
What a sweet looking (and manageable) pup! What kind is he? We are looking after loosing our dalmation last year.
Hey, it’s kind of like my dog! Same leg length, same face, except my dog has straighter hair.
Did you know my dog is a Wheaten Terrier mix?
Beth — Clover is a soft coated Wheaten terrier. Good with kids and no shedding — the perfect breed.
And no, Jeanette — what’s he mixed with?
You know if I had just looked at the TITLE, I would have know the breed (duh!).
Do you walk him around the neighborhood?
I do, sometimes, when he’s not being lazy. Sometimes I take him up to the corner to meet the kids when they get out of school. He likes that.
Ah the life of a dog. Not so bad.
