A pointer? Na, she's wondering what it would taste like if only . . .

When she was two, she caught a cat in the back yard. Did you know that they have sharp things in their feet? Scratched her nose! Now she just chases them, but doesn't try to catch them anymore.

Bulldogs are amazingly fast off the mark for ten feet. All that muscle lets them four foot then five foot jump start. Well, except for AKC English Bulldogs that can only make six inch steps.

Fort Benton, Mt. is known for the faithful dog, Shep, waiting for his master to return. We used to stop by there now and then when I was a kid. Even today my vision gets a little blurry when I remember the story.

Forever Faithful: Old Shep, Fort Benton, Montana

Tributes to the dog that waited for five years for his dead master to return, meeting every train. Until he was run over by one.
