There's A Lesson In Here Somewhere

Sixty pound Remy, completely unaware that he is well over "lap dog" size, perfectly content with the lap he's been given...

  1. Lap spelled backwards is pal, and I think Remy has found a pal. This is a priceless post.

  4. Thanks everybody for the comments. Remy was sort of a rescue dog--it's a long and complicated story and there is more than one version (of course, mine is the only one that's correct), so I won't bore anyone with those details. We were told he was a collie-boxer mix. He has the long, vaguely aristorcratic face of a collie, he is broad across the chest like a boxer, but otherwise tall and much leaner than either collies or boxers genrally are. He was about four months old when we got him and very funny looking. He's still pretty funny looking...but he is one of the most insanely affectionate dogs I've ever met. Even when he is ON you, he wants to be closer and will nuzzle his pointy nose down in your neck, etc. It's occasionally overwhelming, sometimes adorable. (It's especially adorable when he's doing it to someone else!)

  5. Such a sweetie. In his mind, he's still a wee puppy.

  6. I love how both dogs and cats shoe horn themselves into tight spaces and declare themselves victorious even though they are spilling over like a bulging muffin top.

    What a sweet sweet boy :).
