My dog likes doing that position when pretending to sleep, or waiting to sneeze, or just rubbing his eyes for a looong time (grin, chuckle). That’s the fun side of the piece, for me, that is.
Imagining it as a dog’s very last stance, of course, saddens me (sniff).
Anyway, I’m awaiting an update on your site. (I always come back for a look. Cheers.)
Thanks for your comment and for your kind words. I haven’t been spending as much time on this site as I’d like lately.
