My little buddy Stumpi in Nova Scotia, on a day early summer 09, when he bravely struck out from the safety of his mom's doggie bed at an age of - maybe - 6 weeks young.
Oh, youthful innocence and curiosity....
with a bit of 'je ne sais quoit...'
And a body full of promise....here is is about three months old, a perky teenager already. This is the time in October 09, when he and I became buddies.
A few months later...... December 09
Now, at about six months of age, Stumpi is still stumpy, but his self assurance sure grew in leaps and bounds and fetches so much that...
he is confident enough to venture off into the wintry Nova Scotia wilds at the controls of his brand new snowmobile (must be his Christmas present...in addition to a whole baking pan full of home baked jerky-treats, lovingly sliced, diced and dried by his personal Doggie Santa Claus).
Merry Christmas Everyone!
