Happy and Tanner look like two real hiking buddies.

He is 15 in this photo, but now turning 16 this month he is starting to slow down.

Hmm... out hiking is the hard part, since I keep them on leash (and therefore you'd usually get an aerial view of the back of their heads..!)

Here are Jinx (the whippet) and Joker & Jester (borzois) taking over the couch at home:

Here's me with the pups down at Fort Stevens last May:

Fun thread!

He doesn't look a day older than 3.

What a handsome group, Tom. Especially love the top shot. Real couch potatoes.

My Russellz, being small, easily sunburned and extra long, can't hike as much as I'd like. Tom, Dick and Harry was their last big adventure. But here they are getting their ears blown back at Crater Lake. :lol:
