I have been stuck at a farmhouse in the boonies with NO internet since Sunday evening because I got snowed in! I'm so glad to be home. It felt like I was up there forever!
Last Sunday I arrived early and Opie was still in the fenced in area that surrounds the runs having his daily "out of the run time" that ever dog gets every day (especially the house-trained ones). I walked in there and he jumped up and put a paw on either one of my shoulders and actually gave me kisses on my face! He had only licked my hands previously. He's about an inch or two taller than me when he stands up! (I'm 5ft tall).
I haven't been getting many pictures of him lately because he just wants to snuggle a lot of the time (unless there's food somewhere, then his focus is entirely on that. )
