'Do You Wanna...."

Our guy, Shea, has many favorite past times. There is chasing the ball, swimming, licking peanut butter, and sleeping. But, possibly his favorite is laying on Jeff. So much so, that all Jeff has to do is say those magic words, "do you wanna lay on me?" With this, Shea's ear go back, his tail gets still, as if he is making sure he understood the question correctly. When Jeff says it a second time, this statue of a dog leaps, all 75 pounds of him, up on to Jeff with as much exuberance as he can muster.
Then he lays there for as long as is allowed. This could be ten minutes, it could be an hour. Whatever he can get.

He loves every minute of it. And Jeff? He may love it more. For two reasons: 1) there is no better way to  bond with your dog and know that he/she loves you, and 2) he knows that I get extremely jealous. In fact, he always asks, "how jealous are you right now?" as I watch my two favorite boys cuddle, leaving me with nothing to do but snap pictures of it. 
So, this post is coming to you a little late tonight because, well, I actually got Shea to lay on me. You're crazy if you think I was going to give that up. 

 
Believe me, the last thing I am trying to do is make Jeff jealous. In fact, I think the only reason Shea did this was because he misses Jeff so much. I was happy to fill in for the time being. We all know what is going to happen when all three of us are under the same roof again. And, yes, I will be thrilled (and jealous) about it!
