My 'magical duo' - Merlin and Mystic

If nothing else - shoot a dog - or two.  Never a problem, I have four!
Sitting in the armchair wondering what to photograph and these two were gazing at me - one almost touching the camera!
They are very close in age, both nearly 7 - Merlin on the left is a Border Collie and will be 7 on 14th August; Mystic is half Border Collie and she came from a rescue at 10 weeks old so her birthday is estimated as just 6 weeks after Merlin's, on 28th September.
