Pippin and Little John

Took four tries to get these pictures up. That'll get old fast.

Last Wednesday was Pippin Day!
I love Pippin. He and Kodi met when Kodi first started working at the kennel with me and they formed an instant friendship that Kodi doesn't normally find with other dogs. I can count on one hand the number of dogs that Kodi actually seems to like, as opposed to ignoring or tolerating. Badger and his flyball friend Maggie come to mind but I am hard pressed to think of a fourth.



Hunting ground squirrels together.



Group come command. I have a few of these on video.



So freaking happy all the time

Can't stay still long though



The most grown up Badger has ever looked




And, welcoming back Little John the Irish Wolfhound. People commented that he didn't look that big on my last posts, and I suppose due to the flattening of the three dimensional world that happens in photographs he doesn't look all that big. You'll have to trust me that he is. Check him out running with Kodi, they are side by side (actually Kodi nearly got run over, poor guy.)



Badger throwing himself at John's feet and begging for mercy.



Badger submissive grin.



Group shot. Only two dogs look happy in this and the red boy was removed from the situation after this shot. John made him really uncomfortable. He is a huge intact male and Kodi wasn't quite ok with that.
