In looking through my Topher photos, I found a few that I thought would be fun for my family and friends to see. I think this collection could easily be called Topher Then and Now. Rarely seen photos of The Toph-man as a wee pup.
Here he is. See him on the left – that bit of black and white all cuddled up next to one of his litter mates?
In this one he certainly looks like a little squirt – tee-nintsy – the littlest one in the bunch it seems.
Now look at the little imp! Jay keeps saying that dog is spoiled (in the most affectionate way of course) and looking at this photo, it would be difficult to disagree.
I’m sure he thinks he earns his keep. He helps with the envelopes for the Christmas cards.
And he makes sure that we don’t throw away anything valuable in the trash can: “Aye aye Captain. This one has been fully inspected.”
Of course, he’s not terribly keen on the getting clean part of his existence. “How can I maintain my ferocious demeanor looking like this?”
What that saying? “Don’t be afraid of product.”
This was taken at the end of a very long day when he was sacked out.
Speaking of the end of a long day, I think I hear my pillow calling out to me.
Y’all have a terrific Monday!
unas fotos fantasticas , es cierto crecen muy deprisa y casi sin darnos cuenta

Ah.... ♫ you must have been a bee-u-tee-ful baby, 'cause baby........ ♫
ReplyDeleteYes, paper shredding is a very serious occupation, it requires a very precise and controlled jaw. Back and forth head shaking is also required.
GO TOPHER! Oh, and don't forget to practice your "keep away" everyday. That could be loads of fun in Miss Ginger's studio. (o: GO TOPHER!

Hi Prudence,
DeleteYou sound like you know exactly what you are talking about. I think Topher will benefit greatly from your advice although some of it he already has a handle on!

Topher is just an overload of cute.

We have absolutely no idea what Jay might mean. Nope, not a clue...

Hi Jack, Boo and The Clan,
DeleteYeah, I can't imagine why you would know what he means. It's not like you guys have any experience with such things.
And that is why we love you......
hugs,
~ginger and Sebastian and The Toph!
He is sooooo cute! Merry Christmas to you all =)
