Many good comedy teams are made up a funny guy and a straight man. If Trey is the "funny guy", then Wendy is the "straight man".

It's easy to find funny, interesting photos of Trey. He's always up to stuff, while Wendy, Wendy, isn't. Isn't up to stuff I mean.
Like the "good child" who lives in the shadow of a problematic sibling, mild-mannered Wendy lives in Trey's boisterous, shadow.

Though she comes when called, sits, waits and always behaves or at least pretends to behave, Wendy is no pushover. If Trey is close to me, Wendy subtly pushes her way between us, and when she thinks I'm not looking, she shows him her "pearly whites" and suggests he move along.
When chasing the ball, Trey deliberately bumps into Wendy. She gets fatigued with his childish antics and when she gets the ball, she also gets her revenge. She'll drop the ball and when Trey reaches to pick it up, she reaches out and SNAPS at him.
Trey may be pitbull, but Wendy the undersized lab-cross, wears the pants.
The one thing they can agree on is their mutual love for chasing the ball,

| Waiting for the ball to come down. |
Jumping after the ball,
 |
| And sometimes not waiting for the ball to come down. |
and pretty much doing anything that involves balls.
 |
| Sometimes for Wendy, that means lurking in the grass, waiting for the ball to come her way... |
A wonderful walking buddy, good listener and loving companion. Wendy is everything a "good" dog should be.
Good girl, Wendy.
Sweet. Just like children. Both loved like crazy but so different from each other. I think pit bulls are often pushovers. They get a bad rap from all the ignorant sub standard owners whose hands they fall into.
ReplyDeleteYou are right Linda. Some people don't deserve to own dogs ...
DeleteI just LOVE Wendy. And, as well as all the other good things about her, she's very beautiful. Sweet doggie xxxx
ReplyDeleteThis and the above comment was by your walker friend Lynne xxxx
Deleteand she makes sure we don't get lost when walking. That's why you nic-named her, "Sherpa dog".
DeleteThey sound like the Odd Couple. Oscar and...what was his name?...Felix! You are lucky, you get to appreciate both personalities.
ReplyDeleteTwo Treys would drive me nuts. Walking on leash, it is Trey who gets most of the attention to ensure he is walking in a well-mannered way. Luckily having Wendy as the second dog allows me to do that.
DeleteTrey and Wendy, two special and different dogs, both lovable and wonderful companions. I love the way you described them and their attitude towards you. Great photos too. Wendy and her paw in the air is adorable.
DeleteIsa, it's hard to get a photo of Wendy WITHOUT her paw in the air. Guess there must be pointer in her family tree.
DeleteI have one of those lovely fur babies who discreetly shows his pearly whites to tell one of his siblings to back off when he thinks his two-legged parents aren't watching! Lake Superior Spirit sent me your way through her post -- glad she did! ~ Kat
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by Kat.
DeleteThose sorts of dogs are like the "brown-nosers" of the dog world. The PRETEND to be good when the "parent" is watching ...
