I spy something in the meadow. Sometimes you have to look very closely …
And sometimes, they just come rushing to greet you – like my buddy Noah, who I see fairly often.
I love my workday walks on the trail behind our offices.
I never know who, or what, I’ll meet.
Today I spied Presley and Sienna.
I almost mistook Presley for a Jack Rabbit.
Presley, it turns out, is on his third home.
He started as an apartment dog, but needed space to run and dig.
Then, he became a family dog, until he got lost in the shuffle of kids and kid activity schedules.
Hopefully, he has found his third and final home with Wendy. She volunteers at a local shelter and seems to truly understand the needs of a high energy Weimaraner.
Sienna certainly seems to enjoy his company.
If a tired dog is a happy dog, then Presley and Sienna must be very happy dogs indeed.
Great to meet you. See you in the meadow. 🙂
Pleasantly surprised to see a Friday blog posting. Perhaps the third time is a charm for Presley. Beautiful day today for a walk and for those of us lucky enough to spend time in the garden.
Great series of shots.
I can understand mismatched pet & owner caused by living conditions. I do have a bit more trouble imagining family & pet conflicts – unless there were extreme family stresses. North American young families are being chewed up by a social machine of competing demands, most of them driven by Big Business and related consumerism and mass media. Children & pets have become both pawns & collateral damage in the social manipulation of values & beliefs.
I hope Presley has indeed found his final home! As much as it makes me sad to think of the separation anxiety a dog can feel when he loses his family, I think that he has a wonderful future ahead of him! And who wouldn’t enjoy walking in that amazingly beautiful park-like garden! Your photos are SO inviting. 🙂
