In the world of dogs, friendships can be tough to come by. Dex loves other dogs {and is the welcoming committee when we take him to the dog park}, but it's often not reciprocated. Sad, but true. Enter Meck, the 8-month-old Vizsla puppy we dog-sat last week:

They are truly brothers from another mother: they love to play and wrestle and chew bones and get into trouble... {even as I'm typing, Dex is trying to tip-toe out of the office with one of Livvy's stuffed animals in his mouth... ugh}.
Despite their time-outs a la crate, they spent two-and-a-half days having a blast, wearing their doggie smiles all the while.
Dogs: Agreeable friends. They ask no questions, they pass no criticisms.
-George Elliot
