Alayne got this shot of little Dexter the other evening after feeding the dogs. Every time Dexter has finished eating, he licks his bowl clean until it's spotless. Actually, until the final spot of food ends up on the tip of his nose. Then he saunters into the kitchen and stares up at Alayne like this, imploring her for more food. We don't know what it is about the physics of the round food bowl and the pointy Dachshund nose, but somehow he always gets a dab of food on the end of his nose. He seems either unaware of it, or — more likely — he thinks it sends a powerful message to Alayne about what he's looking for.

Perhaps going to great lengths to get a kiss from the girls, :).
What a cutie!LikeLike

Dexter T. looks fabulous. I thought of him when reading your blog about Moose coming into the house. Dexter’s not the new kid anymore. I know I’ve said it before but it’s amazing to me how you blend together so many dogs. RDR is a magical place!

My theory: Mr. Dexter T. Dickens knows he looks absolutely adorable like that, and he loves to see Alayne smile when she sees him. Great photo, Steve.
BTW, how is Margaret?LikeLike

Or, it could be a snack for later in the evening if Alayne doesn’t give in! He is too cute! I was just thinking about Dexter the other day & hoping he was doing well. I can see from this photo he is just fine!!!

Dexter has quite the adorable “feed me some more” plan going. If he can’t get another bowl, he has a snack on his nose available when he needs it and most certainly some extra loving, because he does look very cute. : )

It looks like Dexter ia “saving it for later”, just in case he does not get more food. What a sweeetie. Kisses and belly rubs to all.

This is funny! My doxie, Frankie will lick the bowl totally clean too… then she moves on to our lab, Kylie’s bowl to make sure it is also spotless. Too funny!
