I have several photos of my pets that always make me smile. The two that I'm posting below are a couple of my favorites.

Riley in the mud - 9.28.04 - This is one of my boxers named Riley who decided that it would be a good idea to lay down in the mud. Riley is not a "water dog". He'll walk in puddles and in the kiddie pool, but to lay down in it, no way! So imagine my surprise when this happened. I'm so thankful I had my camera on me when this happened. I have this shot framed in my house. It's probably my favorite photo of him. :)

Mason chasing bubbles - 5.11.07 - Mason is my other boxer. This dog is constantly on the go. I've never met a more energetic dog in my life. We found out on this day how CRAZY he goes when he gets to chase bubbles. If you look closely you can see some bubbles in this shot. He's my little ham! :)

And my macaw Bailey cracks me up every day, but never more than when she yells "OH MY GAWD I'M A DIRTY BIRD!!!" At the top of her voice when she's all wet. Gets me every time. :) (this was just taken with a cheapie point and shoot)

My cat Enzo, I caught him in Mid Yawn... He is so sweet and funny. He is a big, long cat with a meow of a kitten... I love him!
Here is Reagan, and it is also my earliest photograph, back when DSLR was a bunch of letters to me

My Jack Russell Lorelei always likes to wallow in interesting smelling spots in the park:

Okay, I've posted this pic in the German Shepherd thread, but it definitely fits the category. Here's Remy when he was 3 months old, digging in a mud puddle under a bush. It's funnier if you know that, not 5 minutes earlier, we just finished giving him a bath.:rolleyes:

Great shots so far! Animals have always had a very special place in my heart. :)

Bayberry, I love that last photo you posted of Cher. She is a beauty! Bailey is also a very pretty bird.

haven't posted here in a while, but this is definitely the look i get after hes been scolded, usually for eating food off my desk! and the second one was me trying to get a 'dignified' pose of him about a month after we brought him home from the shelter, looks like hes a permanent dork :)

My cat loves to hide under the bathroom mat and wait for feet. This has been my desktop for ages because it makes me chuckle.
