Observe the wild Brown Dog, thermoregulating so good in the little hole he dug for himself in the cool dirt in the shade

Just another day walking by a herd of cows on my way home through central Newcastle

Soula's feedback has been quite valuable today. She's very invested in the current project on dog personality. Brown, meanwhile, clearly phoning it in as a collaborator. He'll be getting last author.

So proud of this little one. I found this succulent by the side of the road, next to a bin, desperately root bound and thirsty. Brought it home, took care of it, and it has thrived since. And now it even blossomed!

For the attention my dog loving and Nepali friends especially: yesterday was the last day of Tihar(Diwali)! The second day was Kukur Tihar, which is as far as I know, the only traditional holiday celebrating dogs! Here are Brown and Soula being venerated for Kukur Tihar this year.

Okay fake-journal-spammers, I'll admit, this is a new one.

Amazingly, something I never did much on Twitter was share pictures of my dogs. Obvious mistake what was I thinking

This is Soula and Brown stop the Pentland Hills during our big walk last weekend!
