The obstacle

Sahraa has been very subdued, missing all the attention she got at the hotel every day, and pretty much stays downstairs on her pillow until Tim gets home, when it’s time for a walk. Oh, except she does get up to have dinner (that I make), often of fresh chicken thighs or breasts, a tradition that our chef in Budapest unfortunately started and one that she refuses to give up. She also has taken to planting herself in the way of wherever we’re going, obviously a bid for attention as shown here. She was actually mid-yawn, but I thought the expression was priceless.

Home sweet home, some day! posted earlier:

She is adorable. Love that look. I won't tell my dog that yours gets for dinner. V

No doubt an attention magnet. How could you say no to that look and pose. Great capture of a fantastic dog Helen. V

Such a cute shot and I'm chuckling at the idea of her demanding fresh chicken! Glad to hear you have finally moved into your home.

The Charmer and her charmed life. Another side of Sahraa's personality is really shining through here!

She's much better with the camera lately. Nice to see that. I feel bad for her, she's gone through a lot of changes and doesn't know what's coming next. Great photo of her. V

We had a cat like that. She was a stray who inveigled her way into our lives & thereafter would flop down in the middle of the kitchen doorway, whenever anyone was about to go through. V.

I love it!! She has certainly developed a taste for good fresh food and lots of attention! I think it is priceless and she definitely is such a beautiful dog that who could resist? V
