The criminal element around here...

Have there ever been two more dissimilar rapscallions? To tell the truth, though, I love these two refugees from the dog pound.

Ming came into our life back in '96. He was wandering around the Houston apartment complex I was living in, looking up at the world, fully expecting his master or mistress to call him home. (Of course, when you're a Peke, the only place you can look is up, really.) I took him in and, well... the rest is history. He made ready friends with our stalwart, Max, who came to into our life in '85 or so... very definitely a refugee from some kind of abuse. Max has been gone, now, for the past couple-three years or so, and when I get to thinking about him, I miss him and my eyes tear up... he was such a gentle dog with the breeds so, just so mixed in him...

Sasha was different. She's a pedigreed Golden Lab and a gift to Lee from her boyfriend's parents. Unfortunately, Lee's not in a real good position right now to care for a pet, so we're just boarding her here until... later.

The two of them get along well together. In fact, I cannot ever recall owning a dog that wasn't friendly with the other animals in the house (that includes the humans).

Cheers...

Well, they look like... um... a pack of canines (even though Ming makes a minimal contribution in the intimidation department).

:^)

Yes, they do, don't they?

In fact, as I was snapping this picture, I was wondering why, exactly, they were being so cooperative... both looking at the camera, side by side.

I looked quickly around after snapping the pic, thinking that maybe they had conspired to divert my attention from something more pressing... such as a big, hungry bear a few feet behind me.

As it turned out, I guess it was one of those rare moments predicted by quantum theory, where things will align in a peculiar fashion for just a split-second in time.

Cheers...
