Our entry this week for the Dane's Down Under Photo Challenge of body part is:

Darwin's nose!  Taken on our drive to go camping.

{183 days old: photo challenge}

Abbey over at Danes Down Under has another photo challenge.  This time the theme is yellow!
Here's our entry: 

We were at Golden Garden off-leash park and she found this frisbee and pranced around the park with it.  Literally pranced, so proud of her find.  I like how the yellow statue in the background is basically an abstract art version of her prancing.

p.s. Just wanted to say thank you again for all the advice and encouragement from all of you on Darwin and her day care issues.  I will admit we do baby her sometimes, but I am trying to make a concious effort to not reward her fear with attention.  Being a new "parent" you read alot of things on how to raise and train your puppy, but actually trainging yourself to follow that advice takes some practice.  We'll keep working with her and hopefully she'll be at least half the confident well-behaved dog that Honey is.  

{05nov2009: Danes Down Under photo challenge}

Abbie over at Danes Down Under has started a photo challenge, post your favorite photo of your pet and tell why.
I went through a bunch of folders having a hard time picking which of Darwin would be my favorite... but I've settled on this one (if I have to choose just one):

Our first camping trip in August.  It was a little chilly in the shade, and Darwin found a nice sunny spot near the tent to go warm up in.  Spotlights on her.
