For MLAA who liked Shadow's recent photo of a sunrise. MLAA responded to the photo ----

"Beautiful. Shadow is really getting good at photography!"

MLAA added "I'm a bit surprised she hasn't taken still life pics of her food bowl and chew toys 🙂"

Well, Shadow loves to please humans so we arranged for her to take those pictures special for MLAA. It was hard for Shadow to photograph her food bowl, since at the time it was neither breakfast nor dinnertime and Daddy had to return the Purina One to its plastic tub. But she managed to shrug it off and take a photo of the dragon, her only remaining chew toy. It is the third one she has owned. The first two dragons were decimated during Shadow's younger aged "chewing phase."

in the house, she quick steps to her dragon, drops her head, scoops it into her mouth and takes it to the nearest human, looks at them out of lonesome eyes and drops the dragon at the human's feet. In other words. Play Dragon with me!

And of course we drop whatever we were doing to focus on her. And sooner or later she doesn't want to play Dragon any longer and drops it on the floor wherever she happens to be.

Sophie, using some lickable cat treat instead of the peanut butter. Great fun, but requires supervision so they don't rip the plastic bag. I used a heavy duty ziploc to hold their painting.

Hugs to pretty pupper Shadow
