Sleeping dogs

[furtech]

As I have said, nothing sleeps as soundly as an old husky. Frieda's mastered the canine art of relaxation, as these photos show:

Clockwise from upper right: Frieda's spot: under the laundry room counter, next to her dog-door; outside on a cool spot on the walk; shady patch in the grass; a comfy bed, especially if she thinks she's not supposed to.

When she's really feeling relaxed and secure, she'll sprawl like few creatures can

When it's really cold or she's in a pout, she assumes the "dog-donut" position (this is a pout-- if it was cold, her tail would be over her nose). When it's really cold (or she's really put-out), she'll form an almost perfect furry torroid!

She used to do the turns before sleep; now laying down is a big production (arthritis makes lying down difficult for her). I used to tell people that dogs always turn clockwise in the northern hemisphere and counter-clockwise in the southern...

I also tend to be able to sleep anytime anywhere when I want to.

Hey-- has anyone seen Wayne sleep? Does he turn around three times too?
