Gentle Giants

I have had the pleasure over the last few days to look after two lovely dogs named Bailey and Duke. Bailey is a German Shepherd (she's actually FROM Germany) and is just the sweetest girl ever! She looks at you with the most loving eyes and you KNOW she cares for you. She has a little trouble getting around now that she's older, but you'd never know if she was in pain at all - she is so positive and happy. She has an amazing "soft" bark and we had several 'barkersations" together.

Then, there is Duke. He is a Great Dane - 'nuff said! No, really, he is such a kind, gentle dog. He nuzzles his friend Bailey and lets her drink first. What a gentleman! He gets lots of comments when he goes for walks, but what he really likes . . . are squirrels! He loves to watch them skittering around in the trees. He chases a ball (a big one) in the house and walks very nicely on the leash. He gets so excited about going outside - especially if he is going for a walk.

I will surely miss my early morning walks with these two. I just fell in love with them both! Here are some more candid shots of the two of them - such great dogs! Their family was missed, though!

Rats! Can't the Dallas Cowboys win on Thanksgiving!?
Duke's my buddy!
