More: They say Australian Shepherds are high energy and they need a job or they become bored and destructive. Loverboy is the most laid-back, couch potato Australian Shepherd you'll ever meet. The only job he's ever needed was to snuggle with me. I'm talking about full body laying on me. We are soul mates. We love the same things except when it comes to the ambient air temperature. I love warm, sunny days where I can wear shorts and a t-shirt. This laid-back dog loves cold, snowy days (for obvious reasons) and would turn into a puppy with high energy when it snowed. As you can see, he's very photogenic and I'm obsessed with my dog so I take lots of pictures of him. He's also extremely food motivated. In this one instance, he was more focused on what was happening in the environment țhan me. So I pulled out a treat and instantly got his attention and took this amazing shot complete with snow on his nose!
