He deserves his rest after all that hard work! Ah, the life of a puppy.
All the pics are great - but I love the bottom one where it looks like the way is chasing him.
I, too, never knew any of my houndies when they were pups. Sometimes I look at them and try to picture what they were like.
Enjoy yours for those of us who didn't have the chance to enjoy ours when they were young.
