I have shades! He loves the sun - he’s a solar powered dog (just before I took those pictures he whined at me until I picked him up and put him on the cushions on the back of the couch - the only spot in the sun). He’ll go out in the backyard in the winter just to sit in a tiny patch of sun. He sits on a little pile of decomposing leaves, so his feet and stomach don’t get cold, and his hide heats up something fierce. I think maybe he’s part polar bear or something. He’s not squinting because of the light, but because he heats up and gets drowsy.
Well, forget the clorophyll—Sunlight gives people(and dogs) extra Vitamin D for strong bones. Maybe he needs either more cheese/milk products with Vit D, or more sunlight to help him heal his hip.

Wonderful pictures. The z-dog is a very lucky dog, I think.
You really ought to get him some shades!

“he’s a solar powered dog..”
LOL!
(maybe he is just cold though) :)
No, when he’s not sitting in the sun, he’s burrowed under a pile of blankets. He’s really got it made… ;-)
He’s up there again now… crazy animal.
