Yeah, right. A couple of weeks ago, right after we got back from Colorado, I was asked to evaluate a litter of Rottweilers for some friends of ours here in Orlando. We went over to the house and I did my usual stacking and handling of them to examine them for structure and socialization and then we headed outside for a few pics. It was very warm -- in the low-90s -- but I got down on the ground to try to capture some cute angles on these 4 lovely puppies.

About 10-minutes into the shooting, one of the puppy boys spotted me laying on my belly and decided he just had to come over and visit. At full speed! Here's the shot I got about 1 second before he jumped on my head. Thought you'd enjoy it.



In light of our discussion about capturing personality, I believe this image captures this puppy's joie de vivre more than adequately.

Beautiful. I did enjoy it, but I bet you enjoyed the head-jumping even more!

Since he was immediately joined by the other 3 in a puppy pile, I had a ball. These are very nice puppies in all ways and the breeders have done an incredible job of socializing them. Such fun!
