The other morning Alayne was putting some fresh bedding on the cots outside the center hallway. There are usually three to four cots along the wall, often occupied by sleeping dogs of various types and sizes. When she got to Louie the blind Beagle, he woke up from his slumber but refused to budge. As in, didn't move. Alayne tried to nudge him over so she could spread the blanket out underneath him, but she didn't have any luck getting him to respond. Finally, he raised his head up to look at her ("who, me?"), and she took the opportunity to slip the still-folded blanket in as far as she could get it. He lowered his head, rested it just so on his new pillow, and resumed sleeping.
How adorable! My Loui is the same way. Of course, I wish he would sleep on his bed but, for some reason he just does not "do" dog beds. LOL! What a guy.

GIVES A WHOLE NEW MEANING TO DOG TIRED. MAYBE A DOG COT WOULD HELP ME SLEEP LIKE THAT.

Awww....what a cutie-patootie! Emmett is the same way when he is snoozing - nothing's gonna make him move (unless food is involved, of course - he is a hound after all).

All your dogs look so peaceful when they sleep. They know how loved they are and are happy dogs. I love seeing a new picture every time I check your blog. You just want to give them all a hug. I bet you just smile some days when you look out at all the sleeping dogs.

I'm thinking Louie could teach all of us a thing or two about life! Love sweet little Louie!

Well, if that's not the picture of total comfort, I don't know what is! I wish I could sleep as well as Louie is :)

Now that's a guy after my own heart, a dedicated snoozer. Alayne gives better service to the dogs than a five-star hotel gives to its customers (and those customers pay their own way). I almost expect to learn that each dog gets a Milkbone on its pillow at night.
