Round Robin Photo Challenge. A comfortable place to be.

The Round Robin Photo Challenge (which I really didn't sign up for this week until the day of; don't know if that is allowed or not), is to show a photo of our most comfortable sitting place, OR a photo of a place we would like to sit. For the 2nd option, please refer to all photos of warm sunny sands and somewhat isolated beaches. A premium is placed on said locations if the water is all warm AND dogs are allowed.

Right now, the great outdoors for me is instantaneous sinus congestion and allergies (HATE that). The inside can be that way, too (know that Zyrtec commercial about inside and outside allergies? Yup, I got them (4+ response to house dust; how rude is THAT).

Anyway, this is my most favorite place to sit, and in the winter time this is what it normally looks like:Yup, I often times sit in the middle of that couch. If I'm lucky, I score the seat next to the table so I can have my lap top. Occasionally, that just doesn't work out.

As noted by the poor dog in front of the couch, sometimes, there isn't enough room in the inn (or on the couch). However, Gabi (the Girl Goober) , isn't put off by the lack of room. She just stacks on top. Often times, the dog on the bottom will give up and leave although Charlie (the bottom dog in this picture) doesn't mind having Gabi crush him as long as it means he can sit right beside the Human Servant.

I think if one watches the Dog Whisperer, this probably anti-What Should be Allowed with Dogs. But hey, we get along.

Hi Celeste :)

You aren't the slightest bit late! You have up to one week after we play a challenge to submit an entry. :) So you are right on time. We ask you to sign up prior to the challenge to make things less hectic for us on the day of the challenge. No worries. :)

I have been enjoying seeing pets getting into the photos today, and yours is the first one I have seen that featured dogs. :) Excellent. :) I am glad you came along for the fun.

Always, Carly

Ha! We do spoil our furkids, don't we!

Mine's up too!

Suzanne R said...

I no longer have dogs, but I know what it's like to have a cozy little dog trying to share your space. ;-) Very funny and cute pictures!

Wise Old Dog said...

That looks like a comfortable place to sit. Us old dogs know how to pick the best spots.

Sandcastle Momma said...

Those look like some comfortable dogs! I love that they just lay all over each other - it's like a pile of dogs LOL Great job!

Jan AKA Wammy said...

I love your dogs. Where do you have room on the couch to sit? I would just snuggle right in there with them. Lots of love to share.

Karen Funk Blocher said...

Oh, those shots are just too funny! I'd love to share a couch with your whippets! And I definitely hear ya pn the allergies. Could be worse, though: we could be 4+ allergic to dogs!

Ingrid said...

Your sofa is quite crowded, lol ! I think you should sell tickets for the places.

Jan said...

Ya, we're dog people to. We've usually done rescues, only bought one. We've never specialized in a breed, but now we find ourselves with 2 Cairn Terriers. I have to tell you, they're as different as day and night. Amazingly, they're both great dogs.

Nancy said...

Adorable entry! love it

Ah! Another nice leather sofa. I really need new furniture in here.

Unknown said...

Your couch is my favorite one so far! They all look very happy with each other even if they have to squish. :)

MyMaracas said...

I really enjoyed seeing all your dogs piled on the sofa like that. They're lucky to have you caring for them. The colors in the photos are beautiful.

Kiva said...

Your pix give new meaning to the term "dog pile." LOL. Your entry really perked up my day. Thanks

Looks just like my couches!

Reminded me of a few yrs ago when I went to Dewey Beach, DE and a greyhound rescue event was being held. The are so peaceful (no barking) and don't smell! Thanks for sharing.
