Think you can keep those blue eyes open after a day of hiking, Rusty?
You are getting sleepy. Your eyes are closing.
You feel yourself drifting to sleep.
You are asleep.

Cheoah
you are asleep……deeply asleep…..now hand over all your treats…..go back to sleep…..zzzz
We are asleep just watching those pics!!! Very hypnotic blue eyes you have there.
Happy Monday xxx
A hike, a nap…if you got supper after getting home, it sounds like a perfect day.
Bentley
Awww, go ahead, Rusty. Put your head down and have some sweet dreams – it won’t be long and it will be time for another hike.
Woos, Phantom and Thunder
Great series of photos! I laugh every time my dogs fall asleep with their heads still held high. But, with Rusty’s handsome blue eyes, it’s an even greater sight!
Rusty must have had a fun hike in the snow. I hope that you got more. I’d be very glad to send you some our winter weather. It’s -7F and snowing here this morning. That’s a bit extreme for me, and there’s no end in sight.
A perfekht way to rekhover fur more fun and games!
Hugz&Khysses,
Khyra & Khousin Merdie
Ah, another example of the “hikenosis” phenomenon!
Feeling a little woosy myself….zzzzz
MAXDOG IN SOUTH AFRICA
Rusty, a family member always likes to say when he assumes this head up, eyes closed posture that he is only “resting his eyes” and not sleeping!
That could be what you were doing.
Kisses,
Stella
Rusty, are you gonna take that teasing lying down? oh, I guess the answer to that is ‘yes.’
~wags-n-wiggles~
wild dingo
Mom is going to be so proud of you. A sleepy dog is a great dog…
Big Sloppy Kisses
Gus, Louie and Callie
Hope you had a great sleep!
lots of woofs
Clive
Damn. Now I need a nap.
Huffle Mawson
You’re making me sleepy too!
Mochi
Rusty…. Rusty, I’m getting sleepy just looking at you!
Play bows,
Zim
Napping is my most favorite thing to do! At least you earned it!
Holly
I’m not fooled. I know you have an On and Off switch like me. I bet if I pick up your leash.. you’d be wide awake and ready to go.
norwood
isn’t napping after playtime/hikes/runs just the best!!!!
Woof
Velcro
Maybe Rusty was trying to hypnotize you.
