Those are the names of three of our Nearest Neighbor’s dogs. They’re very friendly and often come to visit us, which, since we don’t have dog of our own, is a very welcome thing.
Here a few pics of Happy. He’s the only one that will stay still long enough to actually get a somewhat-focused shot. Unfortunately he’s also usually filthy and you only want to pet him while wearing gloves. It’s not his or his owner’s fault though–he’s just one of those mop-like dogs. Rusty, one of his compatriots who is about the same size and shape but with a different coat type, traipses through the same weeds, mud and filth, yet only Rusty’s dainty little feet get messy while Happy ends up a total mess. Here are a few shots of Happy in his mop-state.
Our Nearest Neighbor recently gave Happy a haircut to help him stay a bit tidier. For now, at least, we don’t have to wear gloves to scratch his butt.
