Rangler is busy checking out the comfort level of the grass out in the backyard (ie - she's sleeping)!
Ananka is Surprise, surprise, looking for something to chase. She takes her hunting role very seriously - I've written a poem about her:
Ananka's Pantoum
Crouched down low, tense & still
waiting for the perfect time.
She’ll wait there silently until
that perfect moment, so sublime.
Waiting for the perfect time
to launch herself into the air -
that perfect moment so sublime;
delicious tension, studied stare.
To launch herself into the air -
with birds about she’s never bored;
delicious tension, studied stare
then the leap that brings reward.
With birds about she’s never bored,
study, watch, listen, learn,
then the leap that brings reward.
Nothing’s free, you have to earn.
Study, watch, listen, learn,
apply the knowledge in her head.
Nothing’s free, you have to earn
That's Ananka!
Missy is busy chewing something in the backyard next to her mother, Ananka. Jenne is busy being a good quiet little puppy safely locked up at the other end of the house - I can't let her out with Missy yet, Jenne is too small and Missy is too overbearing!
Kharis, I suspect is checking that our bed is still comfy - check out the photo on this page - that's where Kharis often is during the day - who can blame him? I'd like to be there now too!
It's a Dog's Life all right!

I'd appreciate comments on the poem - Just a point - Ananka is a Pharaoh Hound, but they are a breed with many cat-like features.
they are all so cute
