Like most of us, Rufus has a hard time waking up on Monday mornings. Also like us, his weekends are very busy and he really just need another 15 minutes of sleep.....just 15 minutes more.......
Ok, not remarkable you say, well yes. But I started taking indoor photos of Rufus without the flash so I avoid the "red eye" issue plus I don't like the stark light or odd shadows a flash produces in photographs. The draw back is sometimes the photos are a little yellow, depending on the light in the room. Getting this hyper dog to pose has not really been that difficult. He caught on immediately that when mommy brings out the tripod, Rufus has to hold a pose. And he does pretty well, as illustrated here.
This is the first photo I took of Rufus inside the house without a flash. I braced the camera on the floor and since Rufus had tired himself out running around like the basket case he is, I didn't have to get him to pose. It is not often one sees Rufus like this and therefore this photo exists here as proof that he does get tired. Occasionally. 
When I posted this shot on my PaD I called it "Devil's workshop". I'm sure you get why. On another note, the Roommate taught Rufus to cross his paws while he's lying down when he was just a puppy, so now he does it all the time, on cue or not.
This shot shows Rufus's playful side, as well as his stubborn side.
This abstract was taken when we just got Rufus, he was just over 4 months old. When I posted it on my PaD I titled it "His Mother's Legs" since they look like long, spindly sticks, just like mine.That concludes the Rufus photo retrospect. If you find you require even more shots of the self proclaimed "Cutest Dog in the World" just let me know and I'll whisk it away to you in no time. Or you can check out my PaD, which has more than enough shots of Rufus to keep you busy for years (click on the photo to get into each gallery---don't be scared).
