Dogs
These are random photos of my dogs, friend’s dogs, dogs I meet at the park and elsewhere. I love my two pooches Liza (Fluffy Dog) and Star (Silky Dog).
As soon as I saw this shot on the back of my camera, it reminded not of a dog, but a cat.
Once again the trails behind the law school stink like diesel fuel. It isn’t as bad this time as when I last noticed it over the summer. If you are back there with your dog, don’t let them drink or swim back there. When I called the ASPCA’s animal help line last time they said [...]
My Canine Hobo Sleuthing Companions and I decided to investigate further the hideout we found deep in the woods of Albemarle County. Just a few short months ago this old dairy barn was full of cows eating in their pens producing milk. Until They showed up. Once Their taint touched the cold concrete floor it [...]
Noses to the crowd, my canine hobo sleuthing companions came across this item in the grass. To the untrained eye it would seem this can of Pepsi is quite old. Oliver, Liza and I know better. Anything that is grasped by a hobo instantaneously ages, rusts, and starts to disintegrate. This unfortunate item even touched [...]
….in Hobo Hideout. Oliver has a nose for hobo activity. Out on our walk Saturday morning we came across this hobo hangout deep in the woods. Hobos are rapidly taking over our crumbling infrastructure. America is under attack! When is our government going to take this threat seriously? These building were abandoned by decent, hard [...]
Bank of America is run by the devil. Period.
After having cats for most of my childhood and part of my adult life. I can squarely say dogs are better. Here is the proof. I photographed this cat while at the Afton Inn photographing hawks as they kettle over the mountains. Of course it didn’t actually look like this, but this is the vibe [...]
From Oliver and Eliza. Remember turkey bones are bad for dogs.
So Saturday was a great day. Liza met a new friend at the dog park. Meet Sherlock. Sherlock is owned by my friend and fellow photographer Jason. They had a good time but Liza spent a lot of time protecting her womanly virtue from the other dogs at the park. Sherlock in particular.
Ok, I promised you a big dog post yesterday. I have delivered.
Liza and I spent yesterday strutting our stuff. Because I can’t say no, we started our day at the local pet store. Then we went to the Downtown Mall where we met the largest dog I have ever seen. Stay tuned to tomorrow’s post. It was mastiff. A woolly Mastiff. Apparently some of their DNA [...]
I think it is safe to say that Autumn has officially arrived. I was dully reminded when taking Liza for her morning walk and I said, “Damn it got cold.” This photo is from last Friday while partying on the DT Mall.
I swear one of these days I will actually do a nice portrait of her.
I took Eliza to the vet today and it is all good news. I think the vet fell for her almost as hard as I did. The doc thinks she is really around two years old instead of the four the SPCA guestimated her at. I dedicate this picture to Andrew who couldn’t make it [...]
I didn’t have much time to take photos yesterday and left out one of her most attractive features. She has this marvelous pom/pom like tuft of fur on the end of her tail. It is gorgeous. Expect more pictures.
Meet the newest edition to the household. I went to the SPCA today with my roommate to “take a look” and came home with Eliza, Liza for short. She is a four year old Chow/Border collie mix, and she is beautiful. I was told when she came in her fur was very matted and had [...]
