Gorgeous! I think that pose is called ‘gazing wistfully into the middle distance’. U2 used to do it a lot in the late 1980s. It did them no harm.

Zak, a battered, bruised and enormously affectionate ex working Bull Lurcher.
Not mine, but a current favourite at the rescue where I get to walk the dogs.

Oh no, that brings back memories of my lovely much-missed Joe:



I probably shouldn't ask, but which rescue is he at? PM if you'd rather not advertise where he is publicly.

Next time there's a thunder storm at 3am, I'll even pay for your petrol and time to come get it.

Joe looks like he had a hard life but appears wonderfully relaxed there!

Got it, thanks. Yes, Joe was abandoned by his wonderful previous owners on Bonfire Night, aged approx 12. Fortunately he was deaf, otherwise he probably would have been terrified. He made his way to Holly Hedge Animal Sanctuary near Bristol, where I was lucky enough to find him. Shortly after, I met my OH and we had a lovely couple of years with Joe, taking him on lots of adventures. He was covered in scars and wounds - the general consensus was that he'd probably been used for badger baiting. One of the most loving and wonderful dogs I have ever owned.

3 months ago to today, this little chap arrived:



He’s grown a bit since then!

What do you mean we're going for a walk?


Got me a stick!

It’s been a hard day, currently entertaining us with all kinds of twitching and funny noises...what do they dream about?

[Brother D]

The rescue is still cold, but doesn't realize she's luckily escaped 2ft of snow in Chicago : )

Very cute! I love them when they are like that at the end of the day.

Anyway serious answer.

Subconscious processing takes place where they are absorbing of information, events and learning that has taken place that day. It’s called latent learning.

So if you’re training your dog a trick, break it down into bite size pieces and just do short sessions, leave it a day or two. And when you return you’ll see your dog has made progress (if you trained it clearly initially).

It’s a really important thing for learning
