Meet "Rocky," a 7-lb, 12-year old Chihuahua mix, formerly known as "Wilbert." Once adopted, he quickly adapted to his new name, and the rest is history.

I'm squealing! Just got my copy of "The Day Leap Soared" by @blairbraverman.bsky.social. I had high expectations for this; but the story, the illustrations, the quality of the printing, blew me away. If you want a special gift for children, or an adult who's a kid at heart, this is a wonderful gift!

Here's Sophie denying any involvement in the great tin foil heist.

Same Penny. Same.
Rocky, a tan senior chihuahua mix, lies in his bed snuggled behind a blue fleece throw. He's clearly ready for sleep although his ears are still perked.

This is Walt. He feels your pain.

Thank you. I'm still not sure of her heritage. When I adopted her I was told she was a Toy Aussie Shepherd but she doesn't look like one now.

I've had a lithograph of this Robert Motherwell poster for years, and always admired its power and energy. I was never certain what it meant, but today I think it encapsulates the struggle against tyranny. Art can be so inspiring and we need more of it.

So powerful! This has all the energy of a Robert Motherwell painting.

A friend gave me this print of Cape Horn on the Columbia River Gorge years ago. It's by Carlton Watkins, a 19th century landscape photographer who used a "mammoth" camera that he lugged with him all over the western U.S. I've always loved it.
"Cape Horn", Columbia River, Oregon, 1867. Mammoth plat albumen photograph 15-3/4 x 20-3/4 inches.

Peyton after a 2-hour stochastic grooming session by his Mom. I say stochastic bc he never stops moving and the scissors cut whatever part of him spontaneously appears. Tomorrow: The Bath. I didn't have the heart to torture him further.

Peyton has reached critical mass. This occurs about twice a year because he has FOG (fear of groomers).
Peyton, a dark haired terrier who badly needs grooming, is sitting on a countertop being judged by his humom. He's trying, unsuccessfully, to lick off some peanut butter that has been stuck to his snout since breakfast.

Your girl reminds me of Li-lan. I've been told she looks like a ragdoll with Birman lineage.
