Teaching moment

[lovelife65]

Dad dog teaching daughter the ropes of bedroom looking out the window for barking out at the street opportunities.

Not perfect technically, but it was a split second to capture moment.

Like a reflection in a mirror. Great looking dogs. What are their names?

Two bonny dogs

Sharon, those are some beautiful dogs. The only thing Nikki teaches Lois is mischievous behavior.

Thank you for the comments. They are great dogs (yes, we have four... the parents and two puppies).

The closest pup in the photo is 4 and a half month old Wynter. She's similar in looks (both lighter color than in this photo) to her dad. The other puppy is Arrow and she is just like momma River.

I'm happy they made you smile Peter. One of the many goals associated with a photograph is to elicit some kind of emotion

Paul David, trust me there is a lot of mischievous behavior teaching going on. Our girl River can jump and scale a 6 foot fence, Wynter is in training for this too.

Great capture and lovely looking dogs. Sometimes you just have to grab the shot and sometimes, as in your photo, you are rewarded.

Thank you Dave. These dogs just make life so much happier.

Wonderful capture of two beautiful dogs. Sometimes I think that I should wear one of my cameras around my neck all the time. Just having a camera ready in my office and one in my breakfast nook doesn't appear to be enough. I frequently miss those "dog" moments!

Yes sir. And I need to just have my real camera ready as much as possible. May produce better results . There are so many times I've seen something and said dang, wish I had captured that. Of course, I would end up with a million photos.
(I have no idea what that is above the puppies head).
Puppy Wynter (coming up on five months old) is growing into a nice beautiful lady, with a very deep and scary sounding bark LOL.

Great pic and great story, Sharon. Glad that you shared.

BTW: We hd a sheriff's deputy visit us several years ago in order to adopt one of our rescue dogs.

Our dogs greeted him in the normal way with their loud barking.

He said that we have the best security system going and that, unless we were known to have expensive items or drugs in our home, which we don't, any robber would bypass our home and intrude into some nearby house without barking dogs.

My small dogs begin the barking and then my big Goldendoodle chimes in with her deep bark. I wouldn't enter this house if I were a stranger!

I imagine, Sharon, that it is the same for your house...

LOL. Great story. Our male Kulshan is quite the "guard dog". Hackles up, etc. when a delivery comes.
However, we discovered that a determined thief might find ways around. When we lived in the Oakland Hills, up a big long driveway at the end, we were burglarized. They took my husbands vehicle out of the garage, parked theirs inside and went to work. Our dogs we had then, a lab and a mix, were easily distracted when they threw a bunch of dog food out onto the deck. While we don't have fancy stuff, computer equipment etc was an easy grab (and they even ripped the plasma tv off the wall!). Took the time to write messages all over, including "nice dogs".
