That will bring a dang tear to your eye right there...Please take as many as you want for the people that don't have a poopy to share.
Well if you liked two you'll love three.
Of course it is hard for the old man to keep the kids on task.
Nonetheless pretty much all the surviving burrowing critters in the neighborhood now have nice wide entrances to their homes. Rocky is really into renovation.

Unfortunately I didn't have the camera with me for the little guy's first solo hunting success this morning. He manged to snag the biggest damn annual cicada I have ever seen. It was twice the size of his seventeen year cousins that took over the place last spring. It was the loudest too. It was like he came running out of the bushes with a doorbell buzzer. I took the camera back in before the money shot on the one I did post too. Imagine this with Koda humping his neck for all he's worth.
Well, it's official. Rocky and I have won and are going to keep the little guy. We found out his name, at least his most recent name, was Koda. He doesn't respond to it very well yet. I suspect his former owners may have been the type that talk more about their dog than to their dog. At any rate I think I'm going to keep it. I think it's a little better than Bob and there is no way it could morph into anything close to Rocky. The big dog and I are absolutely overjoyed. Here are the required pix:

You got that right. This is especially good for Rosie. Rocky will sometimes switch from play to hunting mode and it frustrates her greatly. She's only ten months herself and girls just want to have fun. Rocky has though already shown the little guy just how you catch a mole and he will often start digging right along side the big guy when he's on something. There was an incident earlier today when Rocky was digging and Rosie was right in his face teasing him with the ball and he just sat there looking back and forth between them not knowing what to do. In the end though he ran off with Rosie.

Well I may have an emergency backup dog now. He was rescued by the owner of Rocky's bff, Rosie, and we haven't really decided which one of us will end up keeping him yet. He is a six month old Lab/Australian Shepherd mix who we are calling Bob because he has the shepherd's half tail. Initially it seems like the pup is a little fonder of Rocky than he is of Rosie, but Rosie is a little more exited about the new arrival than Rocky is. They all are getting along great though. Here are the pix to keep this on topic.
, Possibly but I doubt it. Not gun shy, but she was only 9 months old, a "rescue" brought from Tazewell, VA, to the D.C. area and fostered for a few weeks. Going on 13 now.
My old girl Maggie, RIP, wasn't a hunting dog, but grew up in the mountains of Colorado, until I dragged her off to city life in Seattle. I never forget the look she would give me when I would have to leash her for walks...talk about a disappointment.
Betsy, a feist we think. I am a great disappointment to her because I don't shoot treed squirrels. Named after an old girlfriend who was also disappointed in me, perhaps for the same reason.
Good looking pup. Was she a hunting dog before you got her?
