This is the wall Spike ran along the top of. I think I was exaggerating when I said six foot. I tried to get him to sit nicely at the base of it for size comparison, but I foolishly tried to do this at the beginning of our walk when he was all fired up about wanting to play ball, so we failed at sit-stay. I did, however, manage to catch him and the wall in the same frame. The shrubbery he used to climb onto the wall can be seen to his left; the compost heap he used to land in is further along to the left.
Pic one is a random shot of Spike on the dog couch. Pics two and three are Spike and Squish on-leash, resting on the way home after today's ball game.
Bonus adoring mother-daughter cat pic! Now includes calico! That is Cassie's bed, and she rarely allows Naamah near it. She was clearly feeling affectionate.
And here is us in the park. Squish is bouncy! Spike is sleek and evil, and watch out for his Shark!Dog moment.

There wasn't a damn thing up that tree. He just likes running up trees. The first time he did it, it was a squirrel, but he just does it for the hell of it now. He learned it got him attention and he REALLY likes attention. :D

I didn't have the camera pointing right for it, and neither Squish nor I saw it coming - but you can see Squish sort of growlyelp and leap back startled. That was the shark moment.

Sounds like it should have its own shark-motif music like the one from Jaws, though. :D

I wish my dogs would fetch. They prefer chase, grab, and destroy. Jerks.

I'm lucky. Mine are fairly good about not destroying, unless I foolishly leave plastic things or toilet rolls in Squish's reach.

I do prefer the kitties, but doggy is cute too <3

Also, Liz, before I saw what music you were playing, your title made me rack my brains w/r/t whether I'd ever heard a Cajun song called "Tu me fais tourner la tête."

Squish always surprises me with how vocal he is for a pointing breed. And Spike of course, hogging the balls. And looking more than a bit crazed on the way home. XD

Squish is UNBELIEVABLY fucking noisy. You should hear him when there are foxes outside the window in spring and summer; he bays like a hound. Except in a glassbreakingly shrill soprano. One day I will have the camera ready and inflict it on the rest of you.

...He is a little bit like that. Refined. As refined as it's possible for a creature who'll willingly eat catshit to be, anyhow - but that's dogs for you, isn't it?
