Hector was serving to me do some yard work yesterday. He particularly favored digging up the clematis and thought the newly planted lavender appeared like balls to play with.
I didn’t understand how intently he was monitoring me till I attempted to take a photograph of my rain-damaged tulips:
I made a decision he deserved his personal picture – as he was standing nonetheless for a second.
I observed 2 issues within the picture instantly… His stomach is filthy, as regular. That’s not a shadow. It’s grime from our stroll.
The 2nd factor I observed was how small he appears to be like. He’s truly gotten to be fairly a tall canine. I can scratch his butt with out bending. The picture was taken at an odd angle apparently.
I’ll attempt to do higher…. And so will Hector.
