Dachsund Madness

More of the family dogs. Sorry, but I think they are a riot and have always been a challenge to photograph. Mostly because by getting down to their level, you either have to kneel or lie on the ground. And they see that as a signal to play or for some quality petting time! Plus, their noses are so long that I sometimes have issues with DOF if I want higher shutter speeds.

1. This is Sophie. She was my mom's dog who was later "kidnapped" by my grandparents because they didn't want her to be alone during the day. She passed away this year.

2. Peyton again. This is a little clearer photo of her. Her head is tilted like that because I was making duck sounds and she was trying to figure it out.

3 & 4. This is my sister's other dog, Yogi, with his beloved ball. There are two things he loves - his ball and stealing socks!
