Periodic puppy pics

I don't know what Callie was looking at, but something on the side of the house caught her eye. I know it wasn't a lizard because it was too chilly at this point in the morning for them to be out and about. Nor was it a hot-air balloon, or the moon. She was waiting for me to open the back door as we returned from our walk.

Freshly walked dog.

Once inside, she gets into the shower stall in the utility room and I spray the sand and mud off her feet, legs, and belly. Then she gets toweled off -- her favorite part -- before we go upstairs for treats and breakfast. Dogs love routines.
