Timeless Values

Zachary: "Want to hear our patrol yell?"

Sure!

"North, South, East, West
Golden Retrievers are the BEST!"

Dog Blog Post #1191

Their Golden Temperament, as described in the AKC Standard: "Friendly, reliable, and trustworthy."

… has much in common with the timeless values listed in the Boy Scout Law:

"A Scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly,
courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty,
brave, clean, and reverent."

Cookie Offerings?

Henry: "What's this? Minions with bags of Cookies!"

Henry: "Momma!!!"

Henry: "This is so unfair."

Zachary: "Yes, my Minions. Bring your offerings..."

Zachary: "Mwahahahahahaha!"

Zachary, are you making maniacal laughter again?

Zachary: "Must be the TV, Mom."

Funny, that's not what Henry just told me. You better not be in the Cookies again.

You got what???

Henry: "I'm an Angel."

You were supposed to get Party Decorations...

Zachary: "Your halo just abandoned ship."

... for Friday's National Dog Week Party.

I guess they'll be having a Masquerade Party.

Inspired by a Country song by Dustin Lynch.

Peaked at #2 on Billboard's Hot Country Songs.

Might have made to #1 if it had included a Golden Retriever or two.

Behind the Scenes

Ever notice how the things that appear trivial can often be the hardest?

One boy up and the other down (required here to avoid excessive shadows) is one of the hardest poses for me to get, as they typically like to be doing the same thing.

Throw in looking away from the camera and toward a "wall", and you have a incredibly simple looking shot that was anything but simple to get.

Not yet, Henry.

Zachary, did you remember to bring your acceptance speech?

Did you remember to WRITE an acceptance speech?

Henry: "If I had to wear these stupid antlers for nothing."

Wedding Heist

Henry: "Oh bother."

Henry: "What are you guys stealing this time? Jewels?"

Henry: "Not my problem."

Zachary, you make sure your little friends are on their best behavior, OK?

Zachary: "Yes Mom!"

Zachary: "Hear that? You need to do your best this time."

And if anything turns up missing it comes out of YOUR modeling fees.

Zachary: (gulp)

Inviting the Minions to the Wedding was probably a bad idea, as it looks like they are making off with the jewels.
