I heart Faces - Pets

When Was the last time I acutely took part at I heart faces or another place. But when I saw the theme for this week was pets, I had to find the time to get this photo of my mothers dog Buddy, laying on the cows hide up stairs while I was watching TV. I am not the biggest dog fan, and don’t really appreciate it when they try and lay on top of my bed blankets so this was the closest he got to me… I love running and playing with him outside, but this is one lazy dog who would rather sleep on your knee (he thinks he is a small dog) while you watch TV.

So head on over to iheartfaces.com to see more grate photos including Faces.
