This is a shout out to one of my readers and condolences for the loss of your dear friend Iromi. In Iromi's honour, I'm posting two photos of a tenacious little Jack Russell named Big Al. I found him today in front of a local firehall loving it up with a stick 10 times his size.
Despite a strict marina leash policy, Indy the neighbour dog prefers to walk herself up and down the dock. Indeed, there are a number of local dogs who have taken to walking themselves, Sadie included. Lately she has been known to bolt to the main office while offleash, about 1/2 a kilometre away, to a secret bowl of cat food hidden under a deck. She returns of her own accord eventually, presumably sated by a salty bowl of Whiskas. And I wonder why she gets the 'runs'.
