Pictures from Christmas 2004
Well, it has been some time since I have last updated "Sparky's Quest". I am posting some pictures from Christmas 2004 so that you can all see what a handsome boy Sparky is.
These pictures were taken at my farm up in Canada at the end of December. I think you will agree that he's looking good! I had him in for a weigh-in yesterday and he tips the scales at 37.5 pounds now. The weight gain is completely attributed to his increasing muscle mass - he's still a very slight (although strong!) dog now.
As you can see from the "comfortable chair" pose in the picutes below, Sparky has started to develop some "springs" in his legs. He has also discovered that he can manage to jump up onto the bed - I have caved in and he now occupies a spot at the foot of the bed, although there have been more than a few times I have woken up with him lying right next to me with his head on the pillow, although this typically occurs when Winnie is sleeping on the bed too. After all, he has to sleep like the people do - at least he doesn't snore!
Since my last post I have moved into a large loft in the South Bronx. Sparky and I are enjoying it very much - Sparky found the amount of room in the loft remarkable!
Now on to the pictures!
Come-on Dad, give me the goose!
That's more like it!
"Ummm, I was *sleeping* here, what *do* you want?"
"Ok, ok, I'll pose - now we'll have photographic proof that this is my chair!"
