Over at Reilly the CowSpot Dog’s blog there’s a contest brewing. It’s especially designed for those of us with “zoomie” dogs. You know the kind….they never slow down and it’s rare to catch them snoozing. We have one such dog…and most of you have met her. But getting a photo of her sleeping is not so easy.
Just when you think you’ve got that perfect shot…
…she opens those eyes.
You try again…
…but she always hears the camera as I turn it on.
Sometimes she sleeps upside down, like she did the first night she was with us…which is when I got the first photo above. And even now she sleeps that way when she’s really comfortable.
Once in awhile she falls asleep outside, even in the winter.
You might have noticed by now that she’s quite the pillow hog. Which is why we call her a princess…as in the princess and the pea.
But mostly she’s just our silly girl.

Katie made me laugh, opening her eyes when she heard the camera. Another princess! (Ours is not quite as zoomy as yours.) Is Katie happy to have you home? There’s a silly question!

Katie cracks me up. She surely is a pretty girl, though.

Silly girl or princess – she is cute! Shasta sleeps on her back like that, exposing the belly to the world. Bailey never has. Both will take over pillows whenever they get a chance, although half the time the pillows from the couch end up on the floor. I’m thinking of changing their designation to floor pillows.

Katie is so pretty. Love all the pics of her. So funny how she always opens her eyes. My sheltie Star does the same thing. I was trying to get some pics of her on the dog bed and couldn’t get one with her eyes closed no matter how quiet I tried to sneak up on her. 😉
