The Happy Wag

Hard at work on an afternoon nap

This picture was sent to me last night by blog reader John, who writes:

"These are our boys. Rotten to the core. The blonde shi tuzh is a rescue dog from Galax puppy mill. The other two are twins. Jack is the blonde one, Harley is the gray and white and Willie is the brindle color.  They are napping in my wifes’ office at home. "

So I guess ever day is Take Your Dog to Work Day for these three pups. They don't look rotten, John, but I will take your word for it. They all look pretty sweet, especially when they are asleep.
