Exploring The Wild Prairie

Woo, everypuppy and everycat!  It's me - Dave. Now that the weather's gotten really nice - bitterly cold temperatures and windy - we've been going on more walks and doing lots of exploring.  It's not like I spend ALL my time trying to convince Mom I should be able to sit on her lap and get on the furniture and stuff like that.  Really.

Woo!

Here's a cool picture of me and my kid brother out exploring the wild prairie!

Me and Zimmie


Zim, Wild Coyote of the Prairie!

He made that nickname up himself.  It's pretty fitting since he learned Coyote as his first language.  (To new readers:  Before joining our family, Zim had been chained to a tree 24 hours a day - for the first year and a half of his life.  He learned to talk by listening to the coyotes who sang to him.  When he got here, Stormy taught him Siberian.)  Anywoo, he's got great camouflage this time of year, doesn't he?  Cool!

Speaking of "cool" and my little brother, remember all the talk about the computer crash and Mom losing some of her photos, but Dad was able to rescue a few favs off the iPod?  (With Stormy's help!)  Here's one of those shots:

She hadn't saved it anywhere else... but now thanks to Dad (and Stormy), she has one of her favorite Zim-shots back!  Oh, there are others, too - to include some of me!  But that one was one that tugged at her heartstrings.

We had a great walk this morning, and now I need to get back to doing what I do best.

Yes, that's Mom's leg. Woo.  Have a great day!

Luv,
Dave

  2. Cool pictures. I have stripes too, but they are because I'm getting so fluffy, my fur is popping out and I try to keep Mom and the brush at bay. The stripes are useful for pretending that I am a zebra.

  5. What great photos of your walk in the wild prairie! You do look striped! I didn't know that about Zim as a baby but I'm sure glad he is part of your family now. I think the people who do things like that to dogs need to be the ones out there chained to trees 24/7.

  11. Woo - your Mom has blue legs? That's very interesting. That's graet camo for prairie exploration but you may want to let Zim know he should talk to Mom about ditching that bright blue leash. It kind of spoils the scene.
