I have posted a couple of pictures of the B/T puppy from our litter. He was named "Nubs" by his new family. I am pleased to hear updates about my puppies, and post pictures. They report that he is a very loving dog, loves to be social with whoever he meets. He has been in classes and done some agility, and can run really fast! They are so pleased to have this dog, and as always I am glad to hear what a happy home he has with them. He looks so handsome, much like his daddy.
There is a picture here of one of the many deer we see around here. This is a doe and fawn that come around and pass through our front field, after visiting the apple tree. If there are no apples on the ground, the doe reaches up or stands on her hind legs to get some. Then if they are not disturbed by dogs, horses, or people taking pictures, they browse through the field for an hour or so before disappearing into the woods again.
I work quite early on weekends now, and Wiley and I were surprised to see an owl flying low over us in the driveway at dawn one morning. It may have been a youngster, as it seemed curious as much as anything. It was really quiet, with very little light, and it flew over us, then landed on a fence post. The dog and I looked at each other, then back at the owl, and I said, "What are you doing around here?" The owl just sat there, so I went in to get the camera, but it was gone when I returned. I may have to start carrying the camera when I step outside, you never know what might appear!
We have been having some lovely summer showers today, but just rain without any thunder or other drama, and temps. still in the 70's. We had a really long stretch of hot dry weather, so glad for the soaking. Soon enough summer will be over!
