Ava one week shy of 5 months


The photos on Carolyn's blog were not the greatest of Ava. While it does show her neck and rear angles nicely, the rest I thought was terrible!

So today, in preparation for leaving for the Nationals I bathed the entire crew, did nails, etc. I thought I'd try to get some photos of the Ava-licious girl. I think her front photos are a million times better, and although her neck is not visible in these photos (as she is straining on the table lead) I think the rest of her is ok, well at least better than the last photos i did :)

Lord knows I need another dog savvy roommate, or heck even a neighbor to assist me. Well, that and much more time to table train :)

Her ears are normally not THAT low, although her ear set is a bit lower than I'd like.
Now if we can just get that tail to stop hiding between her legs....

You're right: those look LOTS better.

She has a resemblance to her mom when I see that picture of Zoe light up right beside on the blog.

Those are better pictures. She does look like her momma.

I'd say she can soar with those ears. She's cute, Garrett -- don't stress. Just giver her some time to grow into herself.

I bought a remote shutter release for my camera. I can set the camera on a tripod or table, set the dog up on the grooming table and push the remote button to take a photo. That way my stacked photos are not dependent upon my granddaughter's visits. It seems like a great tool.
