Posted by Rob (Velveetaville, United States) on 28 November 2007 in People & Portraits and Portfolio.
Last week Max zigged when he should have zagged while playing in the woods behind my house and came home with a sprained front paw. We iced him down, gave him some anti inflammatory and pain meds and made him rest it. After a few days he was better and decided to have a wrestling match with our other dog Mille and he hurt it again. So now we have him very restricted so he can heal right this time.
Today's image is of Max dealing with his "house arrest" as he deals with just about everything, in stride and taking a nap.
Cheers,
Rob

@Eleftheria, 9 years old,: Thanks Eleftheria, nice hearing from you.
This one is simply touching! Is there any another thing more peacefully than a resting/sleeping dog? Give him a big hug from me!

@Michael: Thanks Michael, I sometimes find myself sitting there watching my dogs rest. It is a peaceful rest although they don't sleep for long periods of time.
Don't worry, he gets lots of hugs even when he isn't under the weather.
Very nice angle and composition.
