A Proud Father Moment

Yes, I do realize that our dog is not our child.  But we also have no children at home . . . sometimes you have to substitute!
It was quite obvious that our puppy found something interesting to her in a wood pile. . .


Upon investigation, Paul discovered that a rock pigeon was in there.  He debated whether he should save the bird or not (they like to nest in the entire neighborhood’s eaves).  But before he could come to a conclusion, our puppy flushed the bird and the rest is history. . .


But all she did was catch and kill it.  Then she lost interest.  (But her favorite things EVER are feathers.  She will bring a single one inside to chew on.)
Paul’s eyes welled up with tears. . . it was so cute.  (No picture of that. . . sorry)  He was so proud of our puppy.  Her first catch in 8 years.
