They only look blurry because… well, they’re greyhounds. And they’re fast.

This week, I’ve been teaching the old blog new tricks and we now have the capacity to let the pups tell their own story. Phoebe does most of the narration while Joey huffs and puffs bounces around in the background. Here’s Phoebe telling me about her day:

Since this is our first attempt at audio blogging, let me know if it doesn’t work.

Joey and his wolf

Recently, this blog’s reader (Hi, Mom) called it to our attention that we have been remiss in doing our Friday Hound Blogging exercise. So, here’s Joey and his wolf with the snazzy bandana they gave him at the kennel a few weeks ago.

Joey watches the new lens

For my birthday, my parents got me a wide angle lens. Joey was my first subject.

That’s his new soccer ball on the left.

I’d forgotten how much I love shooting wide angle.

The hounds in action this week. It must be dinnertime.

Joey races across the yard

Phoebe races along the inside edge

You can tell who is hungrier, I’m sure.

Presenting the fearsome Capt. Adm. Jack-O-Lantern Joe…

And Phoebe, the (not really all that) Wicked Witch of the Backyard…

There’s that moment just before a dog barks when you can see it in his eyes.

It’s going to happen.

You know he’s going to bark.

He knows you know he’s about to bark.

It’s like he’s saying, “It’s dinner time. We can do this easy way… or the loud way.”

‘Round here, we seem to opt for the loud way.
