    Some days are better than others
    But she's getting there. We figure another few years, and she'll be well behaved.

    This is an iconographic image. Very, very nice. It will still be wonderful in 100 years.

    Wow, thanks.

    We did this yesterday after school. I was so frustrated by the time I was done, I didn't get anything I wanted. Right now we all have a pair of Chuck Taylors, so I had two in mind. I wanted the girls, from about mid-thigh down, in thier ripped jeans with the shoes, with the dog sitting between them. The dog was so hyper she wouldn't sit at all, so I took what I could get. This is the only one out of the bunch I liked.

    Thanks!

    Are you talking about the dog or the girl being well behaved?

    Hmmm....

    Well, I was thinking of the dog, but the girl has her moments as well. She's a bit of a drama queen.

    Your daughter? How could that be?

    Great shot as usual. It's a pretty amazing body of work that you've got - all the photographs of your kids. That's a tough act to follow!

    Beautiful shot. Good luck with the Dog training, as far as the daughter, I think my 11 year old is training me.

    That is what I thought about my male standard schnauzer :wink: he is going to be 9 years old in Aug. It is getting better:) He is/was my first boy:)

    Steve, yeah, drama queen. I don't have ANY idea where that came from! :D

    Hoping to go out again today if it's not raining when school is over....

    Oh yeah the Chucks!!! I still remember my first pair. I was in the seventh grade and it was the THE status symbol to trade in the PF Flyer's or the Keds for Chucks. I paid $11.50 for them a kings ransom for me back then. They were twice as high as the gym shoes I'd been wearing, but hey were worth ever penny. I was in the big leagues, every one that was anyone from Bob Cousy on down wore Chuck Taylor All Stars back then.

    Oh great photo by the by. Your use of b&w is always a pleasant deviation from the norm here.

    Dog behaviour is a matter of the right breed and the right breeder. The smartest and best behaved dog that I have ever had is my current one: an airedale and she does not shed dog hair either. :)

    Well, we got her from the top beagle breeder in our area, and aside from the fact that they are notoriously hard to train, once they are trained, they are very well behaved.

    We have our fingers crossed.
