Good job bookie butt!

Simon is such a good boy. It is hard to get him to balance bones on his nose. Ironically he is doing this for a liver treat and not the actual milk bone. I was so excited the day I taught him this trick that I made prints of this photo to send to my friends and family :D Simon is so special.

If only Smeagol had the same kind of patience. Fantastic! Hug him, squeeze him. What a star.

DMC-

You can teach Smeagol. Simon is really hyper. You just have to bribe them with something they really want. I bet Smeagol can learn the same tricks after all he is a Jack Russell too!

GREAT shot! Either a well trained dog or you're a fast focus. Or both. Love the DOF and the focus on the cookie. #1(from the IWANT5! group)

Great shot of the dog and treat. I've had two jack russells myself so I know how hyper they are. Not sure of the title - is that his nickname? Nice one.

Yep, I'm a ex Jack russell owner too. Lovely pic, I'm expecting to see him toss it in the air and catch it in his mouth next! #3 (from the IWANT5! group)

Yeap, bookie butt is his nickname. Along with bookie bear, Slimon, pumpkin breath, Sci and awww.

you must have a well trained dog to stop them eating that dog treat straight away.

nice dof and lighting on the right hand side of the face.

Great photo! I like the detail on Simon's nose, but as you get farther back in the photo a lot goes out of focus.

erica2368 says:

digenis-

I took several photos with different angles and focus. I preferred this one, I was trying to focus primarily on the bone and his nose, I feel that is the subject within the subject.

This is another one I took but I zoomed out and focused on his full body.

it just doesnt have the same feel as the photo posted above, which is why I chose that one for the group.

bulldog1 says:

almost impossible for a bulldog to do . This was on flickr interestingness..congrats! I love the breed and know my belated beagle, Spuds. E. Swartz , has come back as this breed. Perhaps??? Did you see the movie My Dog Skip?
Posted 47 months ago. ( permalink )

erica2368 says:

Thanks Bulldog,

My next dog will be an English Bulldog. I love that breed and I think they are so cute. I am also planning for another JRT soon.

I have seen My Dog Skip, The Mask and I used to watch Frazier. The JRT was featured on all of those shows, oh and also Wishbone.
Posted 47 months ago. ( permalink )

DMC2006 says:

2 JRT's...are you a gluten for punishment! ha ha! But seriously it's cool to have 2 dogs as they are good company for each other, but you do tend to lose the one on one relationship you have with your current dog. Its something I have been considering myself. Its knowing which type of dogs compliment each other and what sex. Boy/girl is supposed to be better than boy/boy. Less prone to fighting so im told.

Doggies Are From Heaven says:

This is priceless! Thanks for the smile. Your "Bookie Butt" is adorable and oh, so talented.
Posted 47 months ago. ( permalink )

erica2368 says:

DMC- I know it is an excuse to get me exercise more. Since I have had SImon I have been forced to be more active, walks in the park, running, etc. I am assuming if I have 2 it will be twice the workout! Naw, I just love the breed and I think it will be funny watching both of them running around. I plan to get another male, I never owned a female dog. Simon gets along with all dogs, I had to babysit my friend's chihauhau for a week and Simon did ok.

Doggies are from Heaven-Thanks so much!! And I love your screen name. I call Simon my little Angel POO POO whenever he does something bad!!
