He's growing up!

Its harder to see the changes, once they get past puppy-hood. But then I look at pictures like these.....

This is me and Apollo at the Mid-Nov show last year (2012), he was a month short of two years of age:

My big fluffy baby is growing up!!


(sorry for the crapping cropping and color on the 2nd photo, my scanner is on the fritz, so I ended up taking a picture of the picture, and without photoshop there wasn't much I could do to fix it)

You can really see it in his face. Handsome boy.

He filled out a lot. Looks great.

Just like me he gets better looking as he gets older!

He is a very handsome man! He always looks so aloof, which I love.

The poor photographer....standard practice is to toss a squeeker toy to hold the dog's attention for the picture. The photographer tossed three squeekers and a ball and Apollo was STILL going "ho hum why am I here?" then the guy pulled out his keys and jingled them and tossed them, and damned if Apollo didn't pay attention to that lol

 

[angelbears]

Apollo is a smart boy! Keys = getting the hell out of there! lol

 

[ruthcatrin]

That he is! He's handling the shows much better though. He was stressed the first couple, now he's much more relaxed.
