RESISTED THE IMPULSE

Coming home from the Doc’s a while earlier today, I noted Dog was lonesome in pen.

His pen has corrugated fiberglass roof under a live oak shade tree. It is nice, with running water & its own sewer. That means more frequent pen clean-outs in Fall. Seeing a bunch of leaves & acorns, which don’t work well in the sewer pipe, I used my broom, swept them out, then grabbed the hose to clean the dust & tiny things.

Mind elsewhere, as per usual; my duties were interrupted by what sounded like a burst of full-auto fire very nearby.

Before I reached for the EDC, I luckily recalled that I wasn’t in Florida any longer, so I didn’t need to return fire to the acorn-dropping-to-dog-pen-roof live oak.

Life goes on, albeit very slowly, on the Bayou in photo background.

Beau the Dog, post hunting dog career, has endeared himself to the Mrs, so he only rarely overnights in this pen.
He does stay in it when we are away from the property for errands.
He often expresses desire to enter his pen.

“A Dog’s LIFE !”

My new boy Brownie(has a sister named cupcake) prefers his crate sometimes. It’s like his safe space. Sometimes him and Holly Golightly go in there together.

I use that type of collapsible wire crate when traveling with Beau in hotel rooms. Most LaQuinta’s are “pet friendly’’.

My hunting Buddy Gil-Bob can set a crate up so fast it is like watching magic.

We keep 2 size crates.
