We have 2 rescue dogs, English Springer spaniels adopted through Mid-Atlantic Springer Spaniel Rescue (www.maessr.org).
They like to be outside, playing in the yard. They have spurts of energy between hours of laziness.
They're usually on the sofa, sound asleep, most of the day. But as soon as I lay blocks on the rugs to check color or placement, they are right there. I guess they are the quality control crew, testing out the new quilts.
