Benjamin is on vacation visiting his brother Whylie in Alameda.

Here’s an older photo of them from last year or so.

Today’s photo of Benjamin and Jaxx comes courtesy of alotoflife.com and Dani.

Where is Jaxx when you need him anyway?

Benjamin likes to collect his toys by his food dish.

And then he looks at me wondering where those flashes of light are coming from.

We have the tortoises at the nursery today.

Mica laid 3 eggs this week. Now she’s eating high protein dog food to get her figure back.

Jacob, you dog.

From Great Dog Site comes a classic whippet pose.

Nice dog.

Benjamin once was a puppy.
That’s me in the background.

I forgot to whippet-blog yesterday, so Danielle sent us this lovely and lively photo of Amica in repose.
