they would probably tell you that i torture them by taking their photos and posting it to the innernets.
since lira’s tragic accident with the deck on monday it feels like she has taken ten steps back from the work we have been doing with her. until today. i came home from a greyhound meeting at the track and was absolutely exhausted. my allergies were kicking my ass so i took two benadryl and lied down. i asked kev to put lira on the bed with me (she still hasn’t learned to jump up on her own) and she nestled into his side of the bed.

Sweet
yes, yes, i am adorable. now will you please stop taking pictures of me?!

lira and i took a nice two hour nap together which is completely unheard of in our house. she’s a loner, Dottie. A rebel. when i woke up it was time for dogs to go outside. once back in the house lira went back to sleep on her pillow and i fell back asleep as well. when i woke up the second time, i caught lira in what we greyhound owners call a classic “roach” position.

Classic Roach
i have the cutest pink belly!

Look At My Belly!
what?! you know you love me!

more photos tomorrow when i have actually cleaned the house.
