    What a great photo. Though it makes me think, “Why do my dogs always look equally dog-tired when they’ve done NOTHING all day?”

    I know. I love their capacity to just shut it all down whether they have worked a rescue mission all day or just had breakfast and are ready for their mid-morning nap.
