Here's my puppy enjoying the warmth. Anyone else have a pic of their dog getting some fireside time?

Here is a pic of our pup, she loves to sit in front of the stove.
She is supposed to be part Husky but she likes the warmth.

He got the dog bed for Christmas, I got the hearth rug. In 2011.


I still haven't found a use for the dog bed, whilst Murphy makes good use of the hearth rug. He doesn't like the summer time, when I put the rug away ;)

He's parked there right now, as I type, the Terriorist :mad:
 
This is my 1 year Boxer girl Macey. She looks huge in this picture but she's actually on the small side for a Boxer. Her bed is a few feet from there but occasionally she sits right next to it. I'm surprised she doesn't light up. She only sits there for a few minutes and then goes and lays down in the corner of the room to cool off.

My favorite threads!! Ironically this is as close as they get and my Husky/Houla mix usually goes outside to sleep in the snow when the stove is fired up. I would have thought my Bavarian would get right up next to it with her short hair but she seams to have learned from big brother that sleeping on the sofa across the room is close enough.

Our dogs are only allowed in the living room when we're sitting in front of the fire. When we open the gate to let them in, it's like kids running onto the playground at recess.
Betty usually lays down in front of the fire right away. Angus will look at the fire bin, then look at me, letting me know that he wants a log. I'll place a log on the hearth, bark side up and he will lick and chew on it for about 20 mins. Then he will go over and annoy Betty by licking all around where she's laying, (he has a strange licking fixation) until she gets fed up and moves. He'll then take her place on the bed and settle into a fire trance.

Love all the great photos here. My old (RIP) golden loved to stretch out by the stove. Warms my heart to see our furry friends taking such pleasure from the wood stove heat.

Our newf prefers a blanket out on the porch even in the winter time, so no pics here (sigh).
