Our barn dog has spent a few winters at home with one of our members as he ages, and this spring he just stayed there! He looks great, doesn't he? He made a fine welcoming committee for everyone who came to the Riding Centre, and he's earned the easy life.
Good old Bogey. He did take a mischievous pleasure in hurrying Cypress out to pasture now and then, though!

Good dog. ;D

The last couple of days with the nice weather I've had quite of few dogs in my work truck.

'Sorry, you can't go for a ride in the truck.' 'Didn't your mom tell you not to get into strange vehicles...'
