ANd here I thought it meant Apollo was dropped on his head at some point And my word Tyro does have super long legs!!!

Christi, I keep wondering if they are ever going to stop growing... He won't be two until October and still has some potential growth left. Maybe he should have joined a doggy ballet company?!

He looks so regal in that picture they really are striking dogs where mine looks like a clown

Apollo is quite the handsome boy and becoming very distinguished looking. It's your Roxy that looks like a little jester. I smile every time I see her cute little face. Tyro is only striking on rare occasions. The rest of the time he looks like this:



Umm... Did someone say CLOWN?!!!

It never ceases to amaze me the changes she has made. She tries to play with me, but I don't think she really knows how. We are working on the paying with people. She constantly wags her tail and is a very cheerful friendly dog with us. Not so much with strangers but she gets better as time goes on. She has even started to bark here and there.

And yeah I can see the clown resemblance in those pictures! It takes true talent to be both regal and clownish, I think Tyro is a star!!!

Here is a better picture of Roxy



For whatever reason she runs from the camera so its hard to get pics unless she is napping.

Lily doesn't like the camera either and I did notice the look Roxy was giving you from behind Apollo... "Mom, please don't point that scary thing at me!" The new avatar photo I put up recently shows just how much Lily has changed in regard to cameras. Would have been impossible to get a smiley faced girl looking right at me before. I'm glad to hear she is settling more. Lily gets better all the time. I don't advocate jumping up with these big dogs but counted myself honored when Lily jumped up to kiss my cheek the last time I returned after being away for two days. So nice to see them come alive!

[Christi]

Lily looks great! I am glad she is settling in as well. It is so rewarding when you get them and can bring them out of their shell and see the dog that was always hiding in them Now Apollo jumps to give me a hug, and is actually extremely gentle about it. He does it more so with me than anyone else. I love the fact that he has a different relationship with each of us.

RuRu has developed some new moves in her efforts to keep the invalid entertain and informed me this morning that she is thinking about taking up agility...

[Tsunibear]

Okay that's an adorable picture and I think it is RuRu practicing her jumps so she can leap into my arms when I kidnap her.

[Lancelot]

RuRu is a pip. Love that shot. Hug to Tyro.

she is thinking about taking up agility...

The size she's going to be, she would probably be entering equine show jumping events, not canine agility...

Again, thank goodness she's not being raised by a hapless family as an "only child"...
