Gir: a study

Gir is the most camera-friendly of the dogs. She doesn't like the extreme, extreme closeups, but otherwise she tolerates my photography very well.

 

She has a strange penchant for being under the covers. The other dogs also do this, but generally only when someone else is under the covers with them to snuggle: Gir will search the house for a blanket to burrow under, and if she can't find one, she'll bury herself in the pillows on the bed or in the couch. The bad part of this is that any bed in the house doesn't stay made for long, with this dog around.

 
 

 

She literally poses for the camera, sometimes.

And believe it or not, this is not an angry growling face. This is Gir's smile. She literally smiles with just her front teeth when she's excited and happy to see you. Sometimes she'll do it on command, like for this picture, but she doesn't hold it long enough to get a good picture, though God knows, I've tried! This is the best one I've gotten yet of Gir's smile. She's such a character.
