Photo of Benjamin and Jason courtesy of Dani this week.

I’m away and the dogs are in Santa Cruz vacationing with their relatives. But here they were earlier this week on a cold but sunny afternoon only a little bit bundled up.

Jason is cold.

The vet gave Benjamin a cactus on his splint. And then we took a walk in Sonoma Valley Regional Park.

Night shot.

When Jason was in Santa Cruz on vacation.

….while Benjamin had his broken foot taken care of.

Benjamin hops out with a new splint.

He broke his little foot.

Nursery Whippet

From the French, it’s a Whippet Bench

Cactus Whippet

The dogs were cuddling under the covers this morning, so I viciously ripped the covers off to see what was going on.

And here they are waking up.

I’m back, and tired from my week-long break.

So we’ll start back with a classic whippet shot from a couple of years ago, at the beach in Pacifica.

Benjamin and Jaxx.

In case you were wondering after all these years of Friday whippet pictures, Benjamin is our dog and Jaxx is his cousin who lives near Santa Cruz. Other regulars on the whippet blog include Jason with the champion-pedigree who we rescued last year, and Amica who is Benjamin’s favorite sister and also lives near Santa Cruz with Jaxx.

Now you know!

Ian took this photo of Jason having a good whippet nap last month, before the recent warm spell.

When Jason helped V make a quilt.

He blends in well with the sofa, dontcha think?

last night was “First Thursdays” at the nursery.

Ian feeds Benjamin some beer.

Jason wants in on the action.

All gone!

Lisa submitted this photo to Lucky Pet which Dani forwarded to us.

Crazy whippets.

Hap took this shot of the two dogs outside Betty’s in February.

Cute!

Jason is now lying on the plants when we get that one or two hours of sun.

And Ian is becoming my go-to on in-house photography.

Happy dogs in the new truck
