Alayne got these photos the other evening when we were bringing the dogs in for the last time at night. Blind Owen the Beagle and Miss Irene suddenly started playing together, chasing each other across the floor and around the room. Alayne went to get the camera and started clicking away. It had been hard to photograph them because they were in such constant motion, skittering back and forth in the room, but then they ended up roughhousing on one of the beds, and that's when she took these shots.
Bear in mind Irene doesn't know or realize Owen is blind, and he doesn't know she can see … and yet none of that keeps these two from having the time of their lives. One thing I love in watching Irene trying to get other dogs to play with her is her body language, which she displays plenty of in these photos:
