ABC Wednesday ~ Up And Under

Zoey belongs to my daughter Nyssa. She is a rescued mixed breed that must have at least some greyhound in her; she runs excessively fast and loves to be chased wherein she runs in ever enlarging figure eights around the yard. She stayed here a few days in May while we went to see my brother in his Metropolitan Opera debut. She is energetic and very attached to Nyssa... therefore looking out the window and waiting for her to return. Or perhaps she simply saw the little yorkie that lives across the street. Zoey is demonstrating the word "UP" as she stands with her front paws up in the window sill.

Daisy is my dog, also a rescue, who is mostly cocker spaniel. Daisy is an older more dignified lady than Zoey. She really wanted to play, but Zoey runs rings around her and if she can't quickly get out of the way... well, Zoey simply runs over her. Daisy's heart isn't up to this, so she spent her time "UNDER" the benches.... trying her best to stay out of harms way. It took her almost a week to get over Zoey's visit and go back to her relaxed state.

ABC Wednesday Round 7's letter today is "U"....the dogs present "UP" and "UNDER". And as I have four potica breads to make on Saturday... these two lovely ladies will have to be Camera Critters this week.
