Drowsy Claire

 Home from the morning walk Claire and Nobu head straight for the shower, (a miracle, Nobu walks straight there from the door no fuss, all on his own now) and I rinse off their paws. Claire goes first while Nobu laps at a bowl of water waiting his turn, and then both settle down on the cool kitchen tiles to calm their pounding hearts and panting breath while I ready breakfast...in no time they're both peacefully asleep, dreaming of breakfast.
