You asked for it . . . (pics)

We have a log near our driveway that Dakota never noticed until our walk this evening. He thought it was an agility obstacle climbed all over it and was acting like SUCH a ham that I had to run in and grab my camera

gorgeous pictures...gorgeous dog!

I accidentally turned the flash on for this one, it ruined his eyes

The reason his ears look bald is because they are a neighbor kid was playing with him today and when she bent down to kiss him, her gum popped out of his mouth and got all over his ear. I shaved the ear to get rid of the gum but it looked weird with just one short-haired ear, so I had to do the other.

Awww Heheheheh!!!

He as such an AWSOME coat! What food do you feed him?

I had to trim Lizzie's ear not too long ago...she had a knot that I could not get out...now I brush her a LOT more!

How does it pose like that??

How does it pose like that??

Don't mean to sound mean but we do not call dogs "its"

Jennifer, he eats Innova EVO red meat, and gets some raw meals once in a while. I need to groom him up pretty soon, he's starting to look a little scraggly.

Lauren, he's just a camera wh0re. When he sees it around my neck, he will toss his hair around and pose on his own. Plus, if I like a position he's in, I can tell him "freeze" and he'll hold it.

Those pics are so beautiful!

Wow, those pics are gorgeous! I love the view, I want to move out to AZ after school

 

[tessa_s212]

If that is straggly, you wouldn't want to see my cockers.

 

[RD]

Scraggly for Dakota, Tessa. That dog usually never has a hair out of place.

I'm a bit obsessive about grooming, too. Weekly baths and trims for both of them.

 

[Zoom]

Oh sure, make Sawyer feel even less manly about his coat...

LOVE 'EM LOVE 'EM LOVE 'EM!

 

[tessa_s212]

Geeze... how do you find the time!?

Course, I guess your guys don't take 45 min baths

 

[RD]

I have to force myself to set aside a half day for grooming. A bath and blowdry for Ripley takes about an hour and the trims take another 15 minutes. Dakota takes about 3 hours, 2 of those are spent on drying alone. I really need a good, high-velocity forced air dryer to make grooming easier, lol!

 

[Buddy'sParents]

Love them all!

You are a photographer Goddess. :hail:

 

[Southpaw]

He is stunning!

I think you need to post some Ripley pics, too, though.

 

[LoveMyKees]

What beautiful pictures! I have to ask, what camera do you use? All of your pictures are so clear and so...perfect!

Dakota is such a beautiful dog. A real ham too!
