Friday Apollo

Where I live, in between Denver and the foothills, we got about 20 inches of snow over the past two days. This region was pretty much shut down, and so I had plenty of time to shoot Apollo.

I cropped in for some of these pictures so that it's easier to see Apollo.

Here he is searching for the "flinger" (a flexible square frisbee).

And again. To get anywhere, Apollo had to leap every stride. He looked like a rabbit and made me giggle endlessly.

Apollo, the crazy dog that he is, loves to take a break and just chill out - literally - in the snow. Which concerns me a bit because he doesn't have a lot of hair on his groin area...he's kinda naked there, except for hair on his coinpurse. Ahem. I worry about frostbite. Maybe I should get him a coat? He'd look damned silly, though...But humiliating him is so fun!

I showed the above picture to a friend of mine, and this is what he had to say:

"He's like: "Hey! Hey mom! Hey! I'm freezing! Haha! I'm freezing my nuts off! If I had nuts, anyway! Hahaha!"

I have weird friends.

Buahaha! This picture slays me!

Happy boy

Apollo still refuses to look at the scary black box, even if I try to lure him with a treat. He also turns his head, refusing to acknowledge the existence of annoying dogs or anything else he doesn't like.

Hey Mom! My underwear's on the Internet!! Again!

What can I say? I was bored last night and didn't have any new Apollo pictures because last weekend's day roadtrip was a bust.

And let me say, I don't envy professional pet photographers. Apollo was not cooperating, even for his favoritest treats. I took about 25 shots before I got this one, and it's not that awesome, technically - I just like how he looked so happy and silly.

For some reason, Apollo likes to stop to pose at top of the stairs and look over his domain.

I don't know why he looks so serious. I think he's puzzled at why I'm taking his picture.

Tried to catch Apollo running, but he's too darned fast and tends to go straight away from me (only get butt shots) or straight back to me. So I tried to fake him out and get him to run laterally. Didn't work out too well..

But I did managed to shoot him mincing his way around the field when he was bored with fetching.

Goofy expression here, haha

He spots something!

For Apollo's fans. Taken on the Green "Mountain" - it's not really a mountain. I attest this to the fact that I'm still alive and breathing after reaching 2nd-highest point.
