Ritter's Head

It might seem like a weird topic, but I wanted to discuss Ritter's head today. From pictures, you might think, "hey, he's got a nice looking head." True, I wouldn't disagree with you. However, I want to point out that Ritter's head is H-U-G-E!

It's mostly a matter of perspective though. I mean, when Ritter first arrived, I thought to myself, "he's got a pretty big noggin and muzzle. Kind of like Snoopy." But when you see Ritter next to Lilah, you realize that it is big. He has big, brown eyes that at first seemed to me to bulge out of his head. His ears are so big and floppy that you can cover his eyes with them. His muzzle and nose too, are sizable.

Of course though, I only have Lilah as a point of reference. Lilah herself has a smaller head and a finer bone structure. You could even say that Lilah's head is a bit small for her body even.

So we have Ritter with a big head for his body and Lilah's a-little-too-small-in-proportion-to-her-body head. See, I had to properly describe Ritter and Lilah's heads so that I could relate the following story.

The other night I was sitting downstairs in our breakfast room where the dogs usually hang out. Ritter and Lilah were play-wrestling. When Lilah finally rested her body onto her small rug, Ritter came over with playfulness still coursing through his veins, and managed to fit Lilah's whole head into his mouth. And she didn't seem to mind...
