Terrain.

This is a close-up of the terrain on Lucy’s back and hip.

I smile when looking at Lucy’s flipped-back ears.

I am so glad they were not cropped to make them stand up by whomever owned her when she was young.

A dog toy can be as simple as a chunk of hard maple.

A good dog toy can be as simple as an empty juice bottle. Bonus: it crackles and crumples most satisfyingly.

Our ball girl Lucy was very briefly distracted by a bird in the neighbours’ yard.

It seems that a stink dog decided that the milk jug was a chew toy. And I believed that it was out of reach.

Fortunately no milk was involved.

Fitzi is very alert – anyone, anything , everyone, everything passing by our property gets his attention.

Fitzi, carrying a toy, looks back at Lucy, inviting her to play.

Much loved, valued, and treasured Fitzi.

Lucy sat-stayed long enough for me to capture a good image. I think this captures the fact that she can be a very serious and intense dog.
