Willie_after_breakfast

I looked out the front door after feeding the dogs breakfast the other morning and saw this scene … blind Willie keeled over, the empty food dish not far from where the body lay sprawled on the ground.

I assume he was sleeping off breakfast, but since I can’t bay and he can’t speak English, I couldn’t ask him.  But in any language you’d call this a ridiculous sleeping position.  (If you’re keeping count, this one is No. 50.)

Now, me personally, I would have selected the thick, cool grass to lie down on, not the hard-packed bare ground.  But maybe that was as far as he could make it from the breakfast bowl before being overcome by the urge to keel over and bare all.  Who knows?

    Well, Willie IS a student of the Widget College of Ridiculous Sleeping Positions; I think he’s practicing for his graduation ceremony. Nice job Willie!

    Hi you guys – I have a great idea for you – you could make a great funny coffee table book out of all the dogs’ ridiculous sleeping poses and call it “1000 ways to relax” or something – it would be a great fund raiser and I doubt there’s a person alive who wouldn’t want one! I can tell that your humorous approach to life is a lot of the reason these animals are so darned happy – keep up the good work and I hope you didn’t get too much snow!

    Anyone who thinks blind animals cannot enjoy life has not seen your great pictures! What a lucky dog to be at RDR.

    I used to have a dog who would lay in the sun to bake. I’m guessing the dirt was soaking up the sun and making it very warm. So instead of cool grass this guy was laying on nature’s heating pad which always makes bones feel good.
