A lot of our life lately has revolved around these puppies. We have been diligently training them and teaching them not to bite, chew on anything but their toys, not to bark, to do their business in the same spot in the yard, walk on a leash properly, only allowed in the family/entry way inside, sit, and so on. We have to thank the Dog Whisperer for a lot of our ideas and technique. His shows are amazing and very insightful to dog psychology. People have asked if the kids are tired of the dogs. Not at all. It is a lot of work but also fun to see how attached they are to the children.
Joseph takes the girls and the dogs for a morning walk almost every morning after the big kids get on the bus. Because he is into walking barefoot and the whole
Born to Run philosophy, he allows the children to be barefoot a lot now.
Speaking of running, I love this picture for 3 reasons. Everyone in it, dogs included, have a foot in the air. I love the movement it captures. It is on our street and it is the final race to the house we all do with the dogs at the end of a walk: run down Melrose Drive. I know one day it will bring back memories as we won't live here always. Notice the bare feet. . .
This is great. Maggie and Conrad almost have the same expression.
Ella and Vinka. Vinka is by far the sweetest of the pair.
Conrad loves Abigail above everyone else. He is even devoted to her when she practices cello.
Some other cute shots.
