Cuddles

Every morning after my alarm goes off, I get up and let Beren out of his cage.  Then I sit on the floor and he climbs in my lap for cuddles.  I spend at least 5 minutes petting and kissing him before I even have breakfast.  I think this is his favorite part of the day.  :)

Progression of Happiness

If Beren wants you to play with his ball, he starts by getting it right up on you, like right in your lap.  If you actually play with him, he gets very happy and is less likely to shove it in your lap.  Isn't he cute??!!  Sometimes I play with him just so he won't touch me with the ball because I hate when my pants get wet from his slobber.  I suspect that he is learning my weakness and using it against me.  Haha!

Car Rides!

Beren is actually a little unsure of car rides.  He is fine when he is in the car, and he gets excited if I ask if he wants to go for a car ride, but he will not get into the car.  He lays down and makes he hard for me to get him in.  And he normally stands the whole time.  He only sits or lays down if he is really tired or if it is a longer ride.  I took these pictures while we waited in the parking lot to pick up my husband.  :)

Hanging out at Thomas' House

Yesterday Beren went to Thomas' house to play!  He had so much fun!  They played for a long time which made Thomas tired.  Beren didn't like that Thomas wanted to sleep because Beren still wanted to play.  I made sure to get pictures of them together before we left.  Aren't they so cute?!?!

Bath!

He is so big now!  He still holds his ears in a weird way.  Oh well!  I am glad he does so well with bath time!  :)

Curled Up

I love when Beren curls up to sleep in the sun!  It is the only time when he still looks small!  I think he is fully grown now.  He isn't as big as he should be for a border collie, but with all of his health issues, I wouldn't be surprised if he stays smaller than normal.  He is so cute!

Never Leaving My Side

Today I wanted a change from my normal setting, so instead of working in the office or in the living room, I went to my bedroom to do some reading.  It wasn't long before Beren found me.  He always has to be next to me.  He must have gotten bored because when I looked over, he was sound asleep next to me.  So cute!  Oh and of course I had to share this picture I found on my phone from a recent bath time.  :)
