Dog Days of Summer, and a visitor!
Pepper loves to take a sunbath, so the hot weather agrees with her. Someday we will have a nice grass lawn for her instead of dust and rocks!
Pepper had a lot of excitement last week, Johnny came to stay with us! Here he is:
Johnny is a Hurricane Katrina survivor, from Louisiana. He was flown to California where he was adopted by my Father-in-law who lives in Sonoma. He's about 4 years old.
He's reputed to be a local Southern breed called an "Arkansas Ridge Runner" mixed with Dachshund. He's about 30 pounds. My local dog groomer (who trimmed his nails) thinks he could have a dose of Pug as well. He's a very sensitive and sincere guy, and a heck of a tennis-ball dog as well as a snuggler.
What a cutie!! We really enjoyed having him here. He loved being a country dog, hiking and relaxing on the porch. Thanks, Johnny, for being such a good little guy. Pepper misses you A LOT!!!

Pepper on the prowl, while I'm gardening
This picture of Pepper really shows her "blue-black" color, with tan eyebrow and beard accents. And few distinguished gray hairs creeping in around the muzzle. Her eyes, nose and ears are so incredibly sharp. She lives in a world that I can only imagine!
When she gets a good fix on a mousie, she "points" with a front paw... I think she does that to communicate to other dogs, and to me, what's going on - so I don't come bumbling over and ruin her stalking?
She loves to stalk out in the dry leaves. I could have never let her enjoy this when we lived in rattlesnake country! No poisonous snakes here, thankfully.
