A boy and his dog

Just snapped these this morning. Mikey's usual habit is to wander out of bed half asleep and after a quick pit stop in the bathroom, hit the couch for some quiet cartoon time (he is definitely NOT a morning kid LOL). Seems Gunnar is picking up the routine and as soon as Mikey snuggles under the blanket she hops up and curls up with her boy for some quiet morning time (with the occasional wet slobbery kisses tossed in! LOL) Sorry for my flash photography skills, for some reason her eyes reflect back with this odd bright blue in them...anyone know why?

Awwww, how adorable! She sure is a cutie pie (and so is Mikey! LOL)

Awwwwwwh! I'm pretty sure glowing blue eyes means het for too cute. ;)

I wonder if the blue reflection is like red eye with my flash. Dang I may have to actually break down and read the book that came with the camera....ACK! Oh well at least it matches the color of her collar lol

So cute! Best buddies I'm sure!!:D

:aww: How sweet!! :clap:

How's the training going? (for the puppy, since the human variety are obviously difficult to train ;) )

Very best buddies Nancy. Gunnar's very watchful of Mikey. When we are out walking if the little man gets too far ahead she whines and strains to catch up with him, if he drops behind us she stops dead, turns and won't budge till he catches up. Awfully cute!

It's going pretty well Christie. Housetraining is hit and miss but that's pretty normal with a 12 week old pup. She's getting the basic idea down...it's more about me remembering to do enough runs out to the yard for a pup this age (it's been a long time since I've done housetraining). She's figured out "sit" and "Gunnar go to your bed" and is starting to figure out "down" and "hey stop chewing on Mikey!" LOL All in all she seems a smart pup whose very loving and trying hard to please. Oh and she can untie your shoelaces about as fast as you can tie them up...little smartie pants! LOL

Bought her a tons of chew toys and put all our shoes into a big box she can't reach into the other day as she's big into the chewing everything stage of puppyhood.

Those pictures are just TOO cute!!! She's such a pretty little dog! I'm looking forward to watching her grow up! (Via pictures and stories, of course!)

no it's not.:) it's the thing in the dogs eye that lets them see in the dark. my dog has green instead of blue. but the flash on the camera makes it shine so you can see it. i have a picture that makes my dog look like an alien, lol.

Oh I love the chew everything to bits phase. :bleh: Actually my dog still hasn't figured out she was supposed to grow out of that! :giggle: (and she's 6 now!)

Silly Gunnar. Doesn't she know that tied shoes, mean it time for a walk. You need to train her to tie shoes, not untie them. ;)
