This has been one of the hardest expressions to capture on film in nine years. But it's one I see often - when she's giving me a slight challenge, or when she's annoyed.
Xena is a very even-tempered dog - but she is also naturally dominant, and tried to establish herself as the Alpha Female when she joined our Pack. I get an enormous kick out of her continuous pokes at me. She'll never give up her quest to become the Alpha, and I love her for it.
The only people out in all the rain on Monday in my neighbourhood were the dog walkers. Always makes me smile when I see their grim expressions - the humans, not the dogs.
Aw Shucks ya caught me on your couch with your man...so what you think you are going to do about it huh...he's mine I tell you... eat your heart out... you mean that kind of look?
What a precious picture, and I'm glad you captured that expression with Xena. I have a kitty much like Xena -- an Alpha Female, and man oh man, can she ever be a bad-ass (my black kitty girl, Dorydoo). :)

Xena is a cool name and she sure is a cool dog! Nice pic :)

ReplyDeleteGreat pic, Julia :)
