Dog Report IV

Pepper can be periodically seen in this fenced yard, playing with half a ball - and any passersby who might take notice.  She (or he) will run up and down along the fence in a pretend game of chase.  Until I walked up to the fence and looked at her tag, Boyfriend had taken to calling her Bolt.

This dog was getting some gas - and enjoying the process entirely too much.

Whiskey "Dolla Dolla Billz" Burkle may not technically be a dog - but she did used to enjoy playing fetch!  She likes to spend sunny days under our tiny Japanese Maple tree, pouncing on any dog silly enough to trot by.

Dog Report III : My Backyard

Churchill likes to bark at my chickens and my cat. They don't really pay him any mind, and it makes him feel important.

Zelda, his mother, sometimes plays along. She's a little more realistic about it though.

Both of them move a little too quickly for my camera.

Dog Report II : Kenton Street Fair

Crayon and I went to the Kenton Street Fair today!  I had a delicious Pear, Brie, Mint and Marmalade sandwich with a Hazelnut Italian Soda from Posies, and Crayon met a few dogs.

Xena was slightly more interested in my chips than in meeting Crayon.

Bonita was a little shy. She's still a puppy, and had been recently manhandled by a labrador. Crayon was a perfect gentleman - and I hope he restored her faith in men.

Dog Report I

A new on-going feature:  Dogs I meet around Portland.

First Report

Crayon "Cash Money" Cortez peed on this tree for 20 minutes.  True story.

Sunshine on a Cloudy Day likes to eat whatever she finds on the ground.

I once found Bodhi a few blocks away and had to walk him back to his home whilst holding his collar and walking Sunshine and Crayon home too.  I think Bodhi weighs more than I do.  Luckily for me, he wanted to go home.

Sage (who lives with Bodhi) just follows me home on her own, for kicks.
