Dasher Pics and Pool Video

Dasher sure is a character. He made me laugh more today than I can recently remember. It was like a good soul cleansing. I've been very down for the last week or so. Today I realized how blessed I was to have him in my life. I've got a different variety of pics.

Do you have bathroom dogs? Well, this is what I see when I open the shower door. Mr. Grunt Grunt plops himself there as soon as I get the shower door closed.

I had to adjust the color on this a little since he's so dark. He loves that raccoon.

I took him to the vet today to get the kennel cough nose drops so I could start taking him to doggy day care to play. Look who was there when we walked inside. This dog was huge!

How cute is this?

I'm attaching the first video. If you listen, you can hear his jaws snapping together when he bounces the ball back to mom. I'm hoping you can hear it through my laughing. I even laughed like that putting them together. He really made my day. He's quite a character. She accidentally discovered he liked to play this today.

He loves to roll in the grass. He also likes to sleep like this. He was doing this tonight in bed after playing but I didn't have my camera with me. I couldn't get him to do it again after I'd gotten up to get the camera.

Here he is waiting for mom to throw the ball.

I swear, he'll play until we make him stop. Just like at the dog park. So we just had to make him quit. He just loves life and I'm so thankful to make him happy. Now this pic is just the greatest! It really makes me laugh.

And here's another way he likes to sleep, which I think is sweet. Right now, he's right by my computer chair sleeping.

I hope he's made you laugh like he did mom and me. I think we both needed it.

I was so tired last night that I didn't realize both files were too large. So, here's a shortened version.
