Puppies are happiness

In my world, puppies are like the ultimate happiness! Yesterday I spent the early afternoon going for a walk on the beach with Hill& her puppy, Max. Remember him?

Sweet pup is much larger now.
I love him.

Well the beast has grown a lot! He was almost smaller than Squirt when I took those photos. These days he is closer to about 17 pounds. Which is like 3 of my dog. I also only included 2 photos of Max in that installment so be prepared for an overload of pure puppy happiness! I have even included some shots of the pups together ..Squirt can actually tolerate him. That alone is a minor miracle.

Look at them sort of getting along.

Play nicely together, please little puppies?!

I love Max. I love Squirt. I love when these two get to hang out and play on the beach. I don't think Squirt really likes it though. He spends the whole time looking at me like I have just subjected him to the most extreme type of torture. Playtime with a Puppy. Oh well, Squirt. I love it so you'll just have to suck it up and play along! It isn't the end of the world .. it must bring you back at least a little to your childhood! I think the next photo clearly shows how much he misses his youthful age.

So over it.

Leave me alone, Max.

Yeah, I'm guessing he really doesn't miss being young& energetic. He spent the whole time we were with Max giving him the stink eye and walking away. I think the only time he showed any speed was when he was realizing we were headed home! Before heading home though, I encouraged Max to give me one more giant run towards me so I could get some really good action shots. Those don't exist with my dog anymore.

You Capture!

Doesn't this just scream 'Happy'?

It was a good final shot. At the very least I like it& I'm slowly discovering you cannot please everyone with your photos. As long as I like it that is good enough. I don't charge for my photos and you still get some sweet shots. The only thing I ask is that you leave my watermark on ..small price to pay, right? The watermark isn't massive by any measures. So now that I've rambled& uploaded photos, I'm off to relax& head to sleep eventually. Before I go, though, I will leave you with a gorgeous photo of my pup. Because I love him more than anything.

My pup!

I love him.

Oh and finally before you leave for real? Here's a shot of Duff ..re-edited& added for the Aqua theme over at LEM. Does this count as aqua? I'm not sure.

Duffy says;

I hope my eyes are aqua!

And this blogger says 'So do I because eventually I'll win this challenge!!' Enjoy your evening, ladies& gents :)
