37 lbs. and growing!

Dear Everett,
In all the excitement from last Thursday, I forgot to mention just how much Paisle has grown. She weighs 37 lbs now, at just 6 months old. So she weighs almost 2/3 as much as Ansel (just shy by 3 lbs), and yet look how much smaller she is, than he.

The above is an action shot, taken this morning. It might seem like Ansel has lowered his head, so she can reach him, or maybe tell him a secret in his crinkle ear, but in reality she is flea biting him, and he is about to sweep his head under her forelegs, to begin a round of rough and tumble.
This again, might seem all lovey dovey, but he is now flea biting her, and she has his right front leg (at the joint) in her mouth--you can just see the white pads of his paw above her forehead. See the shadow in the top right corner of the pic? He is in a puppy stance and that's his butt and tail, up high in the sky. Thirty minutes later they rest, and even in a state of repose Paisle is as close as she can get to the goofy dog. He is caught in mid-yawn...and they are both down for the count.

Tonight is our last puppy class--our first and only Monday as we have to graduate before Level 1 starts Wednesday! So we're off to play with more puppies!
