Hunter and Lily are two peas in a pod, as close as litter mates while Copper and Hunter are just playmates. Often Lily and Hunter gang up on Copper biting her and such. I caught this shot the other day while they were wrestling in my sewing room. Copper is so good with the smaller dogs-she will play bow so she is on their level. I have seen her romp on Lily while they are playing, but since they are together all the time and Lily is clearly Alpha, I don't worry about it. Copper is a very submissive dog and has a temperament just like Hunter's.
After play time is over, Copper crashes.  She is such a sweet dog, but a big dog.
My girlfriend Cyndi who is out from Ca. dog sitting for her brother watches between 12-16 dogs.
They have outside kennels where they stay for the most part, but there is always a handful of dogs allowed inside; although they are smaller than Copper(they are English Springer Spaniels), they can really get going racing and playing.  I guess it's my age showing, but having 6+ dogs inside playing all the time would drive me nuts.  I always thought I'd like another big dog, but I think if we ever got another one it would be a medium size one. Hunter would love a companion, but I've got our grand-pups that he can play with whenever he wants to.
Hope you have a great Wednesday.  Today I'll be biking with Kam and then walking Copper later.
Blessings,
Noreen and the pack

  2. How cute! We love the signoff too! Yes, bigger dogs typically "self handicap" to accommodate the smaller ones. Six dogs in the house? Wow, that is a lot . . . unless they were doodles BOL!

    Your Pals,

  3. Love your dogs! Copper must be a sweetheart to allow the others to play as well as kinda annoy her. :) Our fur babies are the best!
