[spoiler] If I didn't see the eye underneath the mustache, I'd
have thought it was one fat little rodent. [/spoiler]
I didn't know it was National Dog Day when I got her, and the
people at the Humane Society never mentioned it. But every day
since then --- even the sad ones --- have been Dog Day for me.

So this video was made on the morning of December 18, 2014.
Dakota is closer to the head of the bed. I wish the sound didn't
get lost somehow. Think Godzilla vs. King Kong or something like
that.

A few hours later, my dad, age 96, died very peacefully.

Originally posted in the daily thread for 3/3/26 because it was
on topic. Moving it here to keep Dakota's stories intact.
I used to take Dakota to the Boy Scout meeting at a local
school. She liked the boys (camped with them several times) and
occasionally found a water bug or centipede to play with and
eventually drown with her tongue. I took her out to pee, and we
saw a man and a dog in an enclosed yard across the street. It
was a beautiful female Golden. She and Dakota sniffed each other
through the fence, and Dakota's tail almost reached flight
velocity. The Golden just sniffed and stood there. The man said
she was a seeing-eye dog for his mother, and he brought her out
to exercise while she wasn't needed for her job, but she wasn't
really relaxing. He asked if I wouldn't mind letting Dakota come
into the yard, and I said yes. As soon as she was off-leash,
Dakota did all her play invitations, and the Golden finally
realized she was on a break. They ran and wrestled for about 10
minutes before they wore each other out.
The guy knew when we had meetings, and he'd bring her out when
we were around. We didn't always catch them, but they played a
few more times. The guy told me that she even played with him
when Dakota wasn't around. It's a nice thing when these working
dogs learn how to relax at the right time.

I was just thinking about Dakota and Ziva, and saw this. What
gifts those girls were.

I still have an old iphone 6 from almost 10 yrs ago that I now
use to.only listen to podcasts at the gym.
for some reason the other day I happened to look at the open
tabs : and saw thumbnails of pix ppl had posted to WaPo haxville
back around 2019ish. ( I didn't want to open the whole tab bc I
was afraid to lose the image altogether.)
There was a pic of a beautiful FL sunset from ginger; a couple
cute shots of Bay cats; acl's Sasha & Ollie; a clear blue winter
Taos sky from VHag.
And the best of all: that priceless pic of Dakota lying on the
ground behind a tuft of crab grass thinking she was hiding out
of sight.
I'll never close those old tabs of those memorable old pix.
(ps.I still think of Ziva a lot and miss hearing her stories so
much x
