Chief turns 7 months tomorrow. Starting to stretch out pretty good over the past month and getting pretty lanky. Only gained a few pounds so sitting right around 40lbs.

I want to play with that dog!

Why does it seem so ...ummmmmm, interesting that a guy who's username is @Varmintmist is posting in a dog thread.

If the varmints are mist, then what is your dog supposed to chase?

That's a nice looking dog you have there. Give him a belly rub from me.

They chase the ones I cant turn into mist, and some of the ones I dont want to, like skunks and possums. (skunks eat ground hornets and stink and possum eat ticks). The neighbors bunnies come over and sit ON the invisible fence. Sometimes they get bold and encroach to far and get a little run for their money.

We've been having an issue with wild bunnies eating up our grass and ground squirrels who think that chewing on our shed is a good thing.
Unfortunately Ziggy isn't much of a hunter, although we tell him, 'You almost got it'.
The methods by which to eliminate such varmint where I came from in Michigan are much different than the methods I can use in Reno.

Our dogs are terrible at noticing rabbits. Cooper barks incessantly at squirrels, safely ensconced in trees. /facepalm

Partial dog from a weekend hike:

Passing through the middle of nowhere, I saw a sign pointing to this place. 18 country miles later, I found it tucked way back in the hills far from any paved road. Very somber. All I could think about was Where the Red Fern Grows and the best furry friends I had when I was a boy. That book tore me up. So did this place.

Man, that's a tough post to follow. Very touching...

Here's Blazey the Corgi, 12, waiting at the Vet hospital because he ripped his toenail out on a sliding door track:

Below is Sadie the Cairn Terrier, 6, "airing it out", as we like to say around here.

Oh, man. It tears me up just looking at your photos. Thank you (I think?) for sharing them.

Ugh... Where the Red Fern Grows. Turn on the faucets here.

In other news... It's all fun and games until someone ends up in a cone! I figuratively beat the heck out of this dog all winter long with little more than a bloody paw here and there. Smack your ear against something and end up with an aural hematoma.

That is so right!

Second one we loose this year, this one was 13 yr. the other one was 14 yr. I will never forget them each one was so unique. Now we have a 4 month old pup. Cooper. Full size long hair. He is still a bit savage, he has a lot to learn!
