Let Sleeping Dogs Lie

I try to let this sleeping dog lie, because she's so cute and it's a pleasure to watch her.  There's no risk following an accidental awakening, though.  Ziva can snap to alertness in a second, and is well tempered even then.


Even more impressive to me is how dogs and cats can fall asleep in a few seconds when the opportunity is given them.  I sometimes wish I could do that in the middle of the day, then return immediately to wakefulness and be refreshed and fully functional.  There's no app for that!

ZZZZ time for Ziva

Children may need to be told when it's time for bed, but pet dogs don't seem to hesitate to sack out whenever they feel the need for zzzz  The only question is whether to nap at the spot where they last parked to observe a human companion, move to one of the soft way stations that have been provided for them at strategic intersections between rooms, or travel all the way across the house to the bedroom.  Nope, that last option isn't going to happen until said human also moves in that direction.  Canine satellites can even orbit while they sleep.
