Junior and Bruno

January 13, 2015 by annbritton

If you don’t already know, this is Junior. A wonderful Red Heeler that I have the upmost pleasure of calling mine. I claim he is the most handsomest Red Heeler in Queensland. I will let his Dad have that claim south of the border 🙂 Junior is ten months old.

This is Bruno, a German Shepard/Husky cross we acquired via our son Thomas. He has a few faults, but it seems he has me wrapped around his paws. Bruno is four years old this year.

Junior idolises Bruno. He has done since he first come to Goodwood when he was 2 months old.

Red Heeler’s are named heelers for a reason. These photos were taken during “our” walk this morning. While the boys waited for me to take photos of the sunrise, they play.

….I will sit on your face Junior if you bite my heels again….

So they lay down and wrestle

On the stoniest piece of ground they can find.

On the way home I assumed Junior would jump in the trough, but there was a gilgai full of recent rain water that provided Juniors requirement for his duck impersonation.

…his crocodile impersonation…

…..his shaking himself off while still in the water trick…..

….his biting water attempt…..

Better check what Bruno is doing…

…..she has got that camera on me again hasn’t she?….

…..squint as if you are concentrating on looking at Bruno and not looking at camera…..
….and Bruno is…

Meanwhile…..Junior’s hunting for things underwater as if he can see them, with his eyes shut and blowing bubbles.

…he can’t find anything so he looks for his tail…
and he finds it

I did capture the sunrise in amongst all this dog goings on
