Squirrel!
If you saw the movie “Up” you’ll know what this means…if you haven’t go rent it, it’s awesome. “Squirrel!” “Squirrel!” “Squirrel!” Kona’s girlfriend Chesa joined in the hunt. “Squirrel!”
Spencer On Patrol.
Woo hooo! It’s the weekend and I’m going to the park to do some squirrel hunting. Come on, let’s go! As soon as we arrived I spotted some squirrels. I went straight to work tracking down more as soon as I got out of the car. See my point? Not bad for a city dog, …
Wildlife.
I was sunning myself in the backyard when I spotted a bird sneaking around on the lawn. I decided to go investigate what he was up to. He was hunting a praying mantis! I scared the bird off and took a good look at the mantis. Can you see him looking back at me? My …
The Thrill Of The Hunt.
Yesterday morning I got up early and went to a park that is famous for having lots of squirrels. I’ve even been told that my humans last dog, Raja, once caught a squirrel here! They say they don’t know who was more shocked, Raja or he squirrel, BOL! Once I got to the park I …
Acute Hearing.
I heard a noise! Did you hear something? I waited to hear it again. Are you listening? I’m concentrating. I think it was a squirrel but don’t worry, I’ll find out for sure!
Ancient Instincts.
Last night there was a really good documentary on PBS called “Dogs That Changed The World”, about the origins of dogs and how we evolved to live with humans. Actually it spoke a lot about how humans might not of survived without us. See, I told you we were important! Through evolution dogs have been …
Crow Central.
With winter (which is not much different than fall, here in southern California) there is extra activity with the wild life. Particularly squirrels and crows. The squirrels are busy burying anything even slightly edible all over the yard. I saw a fat squirrel trying to carry an avocado that was as big as he was…it …
Rainy Day.
Today it’s raining out so I’m lounging around. It’s a little chilly for a southern California dog, so I have my comfy blanket with me all the time. The humans say I look like a little race horse walking around with it on my back. Even though I’m staying in out of the rain, I …
Squirrel Patrol.
The squirrels have been extra busy this week…lots of activity. I spend my mornings watching them. I think they are getting ready for winter. Silly squirrels, it doesn’t get very cold in Los Angeles! They spend the whole day running back and forth across the telephone wire collecting nuts. Sometimes they fight with each other …
A Beautiful Fall Day.
Fall is here. Everyone thinks we don’t have any seasons in Los Angeles, but we do have some variation. There is the over 100 degrees weather, which I call Extreme Summer! Then there is the normal hot weather, which is Regular Summer. My favorite is fall when the temperatures are in the 70’s. It’s a …
My Domain.
As you’ve probably guessed, I pretty much live like a king…good food, lots of attention and a big domain to rule over. And even though I go on lots of adventures, there’s nothing like home…laying in the grass, listening to the fountain and watching over my domain. That’s what days off are for. I like …
Crazy Squirrels.
Every morning I watch some squirrels. They walk across the phone lines behind my house so they don’t have to walk through my yard past me. Sometimes they run very quickly across. Sometimes they stop and balance, like it’s a tight rope act. And sometimes they stop and yell at me and then run off. …
A quiet afternoon.
In the quiet afternoons I relax on the patio… I like to listen to the drops of water splashing in the fountain… they land near the big fish. Some splash over the edge onto me while I sleep… my eyelashes flutter while I’m sleeping, dreaming of chasing the evil squirrel that yells at everyone… …
Critters.
This is me watching the evil squirrel. He lives in the trees and walks across the fence to the other side of the yard. Every now and then he sneaks into the yard to bury walnuts in the flower beds. I have my eye on this one. He is a bad squirrel. He is …
