We just moved into a new home in Lake Cynthia, in the Town of Miami Lakes. Charlie and I found out the other day that in addition to turtles, fish, and ducks, our new neighbors include a few iguanas. This is a huge one!

Look at Charlie's neck. It is double its normal size. I believe he was just trying to get a good look at the iguana but keeping his distance just in case he had to run inside!

Have Fun!

Well, these two had not seen each other for a few days. The reunion was so "dynamic", and exiting that both were exhausted after a couple of hours of non-stop running and playing. I took this picture with my phone camera after both basically collapsed on this bed.

After a while, Mackie moved to his own bed, leaving Charlie to enjoy his purple beanbag. The peace lasted only a very short half an hour or so.

Then it was time again to run amok around the house.  What a happy dog life they have. They are both a blessing to our family and to each other. We nicknamed them "The Dynamic Duo", and considering the amount of energy they both have, the name seems very appropriate!

BTW, if there are no pictures of them playing is because our cameras are not capable of taking such a picture. Do you remember that cartoon of the Tasmanian devil "Taz"? remember how fast he would move? well, these two are faster than Taz. So imagine!  :-)
