Play like a pointer, sleep like a mastiff

More old photos early morning Violets. She ended up deciding it was too early and she wanted to go back to bed.

Found some old photos to edit, here’s a few silly ones of my mother and sister’s dogs. Last two are my little sister playing with Lassie’s snoot. Lassie sometimes ends up like that on her own it looks pretty funny.

Quick watercolours of my dogs I’ve done when I’ve been uninspired.... Violet’s eyes aren’t coloured I guess I meant to continue on that and just never did. I like to do quick watercolours when I’m facing artblock, so if you’d like one of your pet let me know and I might get around to it.

Longtime no post, I’ve had more trouble with my illness and on top of that have badly injured my knee so not out there taking new photos except the odd snap on my phone. We’re still kicking though, here’s Violet distracting me from reading a book.

More crunching, check out those teeth.

Random video from Vi’s birthday last year. Just her chomping on twisted bully sticks.

So I took a photo of Violet while she was sitting on me using my phone’s front camera and I think it automatically used that feature that airbrushes faces? Pretty sure it airbrushed out some spots.

Yeah don’t think I got a single good photo here. Mission accomplished you little ratbags.

I swear they conspire to ruin every second photo. Violet’s little scrape is from where she got too excited running about and ended up landing a jump very poorly on gravel and going down on one side. Didn’t yelp but man it looked painful.

Failed shots from this morning.

Phone photos from this morning.... trying to get photos of these two with just my phone is hard especially when they just want to keep going. Took photos with my camera not long after but need to get around to editing them hopefully later tonight I’ll check them out.

Crappy phone photos. Used to be a wooden lookout tower here but it was old and rickety and so was taken down, a couple years back I took the dogs up it was hoping it was still there. A sign said they’re considering replacing it so here’s hoping. Mate wasn’t up to going with us that morning (don’t recall if he was just tired or if it was when his foot was injured one or the other.)

Tired dogs refusing to pose in front of a curious steer.

I spent a silly amount of time thinking about what ice cream flavours my dogs would be on this morning’s walk I’m boring and haven’t tried many flavours but I eventually came up with something.Violet would be rum and raisin, strong flavour but the raisins provide some sweetness…. make it a sundae add in a few nuts and that’s Violet  - Mate would be that rainbow one, bright, sweet, widely loved (despite being just bubblegum flavour in disguise) also get some nuts on there too… just dump all the nuts on it.
