Dog Nap

What I wouldn’t give to live the life of a dog! We have two very cute beagles in our house and these dogs live the life of luxury. Our dogs are now old dogs, so they don’t do too much, but living the life of a hound dog is pretty good around here.

Our dogs spend about 23 hours sleeping and they do it well. Either snuggled up on a blanket, in one of their beds or sometimes, scoring an awesome piece of sunshine. But just sleeping is not enough. A smart dog assumes a pose. Really smart dogs have lots of poses. One of my favorites to see is when the dog rolls on her back, legs up and ears flopped back. Many times my oldest will have a grin on her face to boot. Very cute. Snuggled into a ball is a good position too. And they have a bed they sleep in on the floor in the office. This particular bed has a crack in the corner and they stick their cute noses out of the corner.

Our dogs have gotten too old to be able to get up on the furniture, and we are not too sad about that, but every once in a while, they will insist on being lifted up onto the bed to sleep in style.

One thing that tops off the perfect dog nap, is a dog snore. Sometimes it can shake the dust off the ceiling fans! I love watching my dogs sleep.
