All eyes upon the special dish being prepared for all dogs.
All dogs have to have manners, sit and stay before being served this treat.
On stay.....................
Still obeying the stay command while temptation sits so close....
This is a long stay .......

A mother and son show team this weekend.!!
Starting from left side is Lily, Cervelo and Rose.
Cervelo quite attentive with my attempts to take pictures from different angles.
After making home made ice cream which all canines watched intently complete with drools, we decided to test who would be the daring one to lick the inside of the ice cream canister. All dogs sniffed and licked the outside circumference of the container, but only one brave weimaraner would enter into the depths of the canister for a savory lick of melting left over ice-cream. Rose started slowly at the entrance then continued to progress further into the container. All dog eyes were upon her but none would enter the container.
Cervelo watching his mother continuing her licking inside of the container decided to try some licks along the outside rim then.............
some ice cream must have dribbled down Rose's head as Cervelo took upon himself to lick the leftover ice cream drips.
With less summer sun any time a patch of sunlight shines onto the floor there is immediate occupancy of a weimaraner. In this instance, Rose has found a select patch of sunshine and is enjoying the warmth from head to tail.!
Shortly after Rose claims her sun spot two more weims, Lily and Winston arrive to bask in the sunlight.
Cervelo finally arrives only to find all prime sunspots taken leaving him to wonder just where he will be able to sit or lie.
I had picked up everything off the floor in preparation for vacuuming which included lifting all doggie beds/pillows then left to some other chores. When I returned, there was Rose curled up in a tight ball sleeping on the dog bed. How she jumped up onto the dog bed/pillow without anything slipping onto the floor remains a mystery.
**NOTE: This picture of Rose was taken at her last dog show, Fraser Valley Oct.10 -13, 2008 as seen on Rose's blog.
