Royal is a 2 year old Brittany Spaniel who came into my life via his parents’ relationship with the parents of Hermine the Cat. And I could not be more thankful. He was such a grounded and polite subject and his name describes him perfectly. He would sit, stay, lay down, and even fake sneeze. That’s right. They taught him how to fake sneeze. They’d say “Achoo!” and he’d make a sneezing sound on command. Then, when he realized sneezing equaled treats, he’d sit there and sneeze and look at us like, “Hello! Here I am! I am sneezing! Where is my treat, please?” In his spare time, Royal enjoys chasing his toy pheasant, sitting on blankets (he dislikes hardwood floors), and playing with his soccer ball.
I looove these photos, Carolyn. Reminds me of my Border collie Max. We call him “Regal” and “Sophisticated” from time to time. I just started my blog, finally. If you plan on looking at it, I hope it is fixed by then. WordPress is just not helping me out here. I screwed something up this morning and now I can’t figure out how to fix it. Oh well.
