We are family VI

In a couple of days Dexter will be 8 months old. He is now almost 40lbs, all legs and ribs and ears. He is just a little bit shorter than Tweed, who is my largest dog. He is much taller than Piper and The WooTWoo.

  1. What a handsome family! Did the WooTWoo separate themselves or did you place them apart for effect? They sure make a twosome!

  2. haha! TWooie and Piper don't get along very well because TWooie has bitten Piper in the rump a couple of times and this makes her hold a grudge. So they didn't want to be close to one another. Wootie, however, plunked himself down beside his brother for the photo. Those two get along just fine!

  3. I love that there is this sharp divide in your household between collie and non-collie.

  4. ^me too! Do you pronounce the "W" in "TWoo? Or just like the number?

  5. No we don't pronounce the "W" - we just say it like the number 2 .... but as we view TWooie as a derivative of Woo, it's spelled TWoo :)

  6. Great looking family! Tweed looks bored, the black and whites are all attentive and ready to move onto the next thing, the Twoo's are looking for those rabbits off in the distance, with Twooie keeping one ear cocked incase Piper makes the wrong move and he 'needs' to give her another butt bite. And if you count Dexter's ear, he's the tallest of the lot!

  7. What a handsome family! But the body language is too funny! LOL.
    My guess way back when Dex was little was that he'd top out at 46 lbs. I don't think he'll make it to that, though, since you keep your dogs at a healthy, lean weight:)

  8. Lovely doggies! Dexter still has 23 pounds to go if he wants to best Buzz. Think you can do it Dex? And no fat, either, 63 lbs of lean, rip-roaring, muscle. :::sigh::: Oh well, at least Buzz isn't afraid of sheep!

  10. I know why Dexter's ear sticks up! It's his attempt to be taller than Tweed!
