Oh, thank you for your sweet words. That picture is one I often see as Tibbe barks his desires and thoughts to one and all when the spirit so moves him, so during one of his longer sermons, I picked up the camera and snapped away.
I think he really believes he is "talking" during these sessions and will finish them by fastening me with the most serious, steady, soul-boring gaze one has
ever seen, waiting soberly for my response. Thankfully, I mostly can figure his "Yorkie talk" out pretty well in the context of the moment and usually accede to his wants. When that happens, he seems utterly pleased with himself that he has communicated so effectively! So, it seemed the perfect shot for my YorkieTalk.com avatar.
