Nico, Shelly, and I went to the farmer’s market this morning, as is our routine.

Nico wasn’t a big fan of all the rain today.

Nico had a lot to say this evening while we were playing.

Nico is all hunkered down for the evening.

As soon as he eats dinner, he goes into a food coma.

Nico has been enjoying hanging out in his crate lately.

My obsession with tracking the weather radar paid off today.

Nico was pretty happy to hang out at the farmer’s market today.

Airing out his ear.

Nico has an itchy ear from all his recent swimming.

Nico gave me squinty eyes after chasing deer in the yard.

I love how Nico’s fur changes color in the summer.

Shelly was putting her dinner together in the kitchen when I took this photo.

The boat is Nico’s happy place. He gets to swim, hang out, and watch other people and boats.

Nico got an A+ for his visit to the farmer’s market today.

Sometimes, it might feel like you are swimming all alone.

Just remember, you are their whole world.

I had a long day at work, and when I got home, Nico was waiting for my lap to serve as his pillow.

Nico couldn’t resist watching the dog across the street while we were taking our daily photograph.

Nico’s day started off with quite a bit of excitement.
