Sam here. Up and at ’em?! Well…I was already out there doing a 2.3 mile walk/run with mom, now I need to rejuvenate with a nap. It’s a gorgeous day out there and both mom and I are avowed morning folk. The eastern sunlight is gorgeous re-awakening lovely flowers, birds and squirrels chirping over breakfast, dragonflies flitting between pollen stops. The air is still clean and fresh and the city hasn’t quite woken up yet so it’s peacefully quiet. Mom says we’re having an exciting day today (wonder what that means-mom’s idea of excitement and mine seem to be vastly different). So get out there and make it a fabulous day!
Live, love, bark! <3
Love the pic..
What a fun event. And for a good cause.
My husband got me a professional shoot with Honey and I hated the results. I know that many professional photographers can get great shots of dogs. But this woman didn’t.
Shhh, don’t tell my husband.
Sorry, it’s tough to get that perfect shot and I empathize with the difficulty.
Awww… cutest thing ever!…. All my best wishes and happy week ahead! Aquileana :star:
enjoy your nap, have a great Sunday.
We love it! Enjoy your nap . . . live, love, bark – brilliant!
Your Pals,
Murphy & Stanley
Oh Sam you look super ready for action…said nobody 🙂 bless your heart! and we love the new header with all that color 🙂 gorgeous indeed..loves Fozziemum xxx
Sweet dreams Sam, you are adorbs. Yes I’ve heard about all that early morning magic … never really experienced it though because 10pm to 3am is when my silly brain ignites itself on FIRE! Then I crash and become a zombie until noon whether I’m asleep or awake. 🙂
There are times when I wish I could do that but always seem to revert to early morning. Guess I just jones on the quiet peacefulness of it all with some daylight thrown in for fun.
I don’t recommend life on the dark side – too many vampires.
On the plus side, TWD-even better! Marathon weekend of every season in anticipation of October premiere. Woot.
I love the peacefulness of mornings and the soft sunlight. Sam looks so sweet and peaceful all curled up. What a perfect way to start the day. 🙂
His curling up positions always make me smile and make me envious to be able to contort like that. 😉
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Sam is just the most brilliant color. That position!!! Wish I could do that. I am a night owl. I am clocking in about the time you and Sam clock out! LeeAnna
So is that when you create all those fabulous quilts?! 😉
lol, yep. Like Rumplestiltskin I’m toiling all night at it! Actually I have a window of energy around mid day into early evening, building til around 7 when I emerge from the studio wondering just who’s going to cook dinner! Poor husband and poodle. LeeAnna
Comfort yourself with this thought – the kitchen is as far for them as it is for you. Always worked for me. 😉
I love standard poodles!
They are quite wonderful and this one has mega personality.
Kaci and Kali want to visit you. I don’t blame them because I want to be invited also to see the chirping squirrels.
Any ole time, bring the whole heehaw gang. And take as many of the squirrels back home as you like. 😉
I have been “morning impaired” lately; but normally I prefer to get up early so the girls and I can enjoy the lower temps/humidity for at least a few minutes anyway. The problem with the South is that it gets hot/humid super early and stays that way long past our bed time from about mid-May until early November.
I don’t know how you survive, I’d evaporate in the heat AND humidity. At least the mornings are semi-pleasant during the dog days of summer.
We love that back paw under the front paw. It’s like you’re trying to keep the back paw from escaping.
Gotta wrangle those paws in sometimes. 😉
I agree with you… to be the first one who greets the new day is the best. All things look like brand new and the wind brings the bestest smells to our nose :o) it’s like in that song of that cat named Stevens… morning has broken :o)
That song is so perfect in describing early mornings!
I agree… and it’s great to enjoy the early morning… just the pup a cup of coffee and me :o)
Ah, paradise.
What a great sleeping position! If only I were that flexible! 🙂
No kidding! To be as agile as my dog…a dream 😉
