Thunder the Dog in Art and Reality

The boyfriend did a drawing of Thunder during our camping trip. He writes:

He gets this thing when we’re camping where he’s having so much fun running all over and doing new things that he won’t stop when he’s tired.

So he’ll play and jump around and stuff until he’s just so happy and soooo exhausted that’s he’s just sitting on the ground, panting and excited and fighting really hard to keep his eyes open.

Here’s the reality.

He’s good isn’t he?

The chipmunk is this little guy. His home was about seven feet from the door of our tent, and Thunder just could not get his timing down to get him.
