I have never had a dog that loves to play in the rain as much as this little rascal. Since the first day we got her she has cried and whined to go outside as soon as she hears rain hitting the roof. We've had a lot of rain and this is her after a digging fest in some mud that we didn't catch until it was too late.
And while I'm showing pics of our girl , here she is in one of her other favorite positions. Lounging .
We've had a week of sick kiddos and this is where Emily has been spending most of her time. She found Val had taken her space on the chair so put the blanket over her to see what she would do. Nothing, she loves it. I know , it's shameless isn't it? hahaha
"Val, what would your brothers and sisters say if they saw you now? tsk tsk".
(Valentine is an Australian shepherd which is a 'herding' breed. We know that many of her brothers and sisters are now working with pride on farms and ranches. val on the other hand...)
Roz! Valentine is sooo adorable! What a cute dog, I love it!! Lounging, hehe. :-) That's so funny.
Poor you with having to clean her muddy paws and belly after a good play in the rain... Our Maya would probably look just like Valentine after a play in the rain, all black with mud til we rinse her off...hahaha! She hasn't had the chance yet. ;-)
Maya was all sick last weekend, which was enough cleaning for us to do, too...oh well.
Hope your kids feel better now :-)

What a wittle wascal! She's full of personality I can see. She should hang with the "Roo"--she hates water of all types and can't stand to get her tootsies wet in the rain.

Val has the life, eh? She's so sweet looking! My husband let out a big "ooooooh!" when he saw her pic (he loves dogs!) Thanks for sharing your Val with us!
