Rutting Season

Hi, Ryker here!  It is rutting season in our little piece of the world and I wanted to share a few photos mom took of a cow and bull moose that are hanging around our house. And no, she did not catch them in the act so its  "G"  rated!  In fact they were quite a ways apart from each other.  Here is the cow moose...next to dads car.

Mom was on the front porch behind the rail, she put her hand out and Mama Moose stuck her nose up there and let mom pet her!

This must be what she thought about that experience...

This is her old bull boyfriend...

He did not enjoy getting his picture taken, and there will be no petting going on here. Off he goes...

And me too, see ya later!

I Love the Colors of Fall

We are lucky to be surrounded by such beauty every day.  Our little neighborhood is surrounded on three sides by Park land, most of it undisturbed.  Thus the many moose picture posts that you all seem to enjoy.  Sure makes it fun to just walk out your front door to trails and instant nature!

Me and my friend Zephyr

   Zephyr lives a couple of neighborhoods away but we see each other often on the trails during or walks.

Going to the Dog Park, Going to the Dog Park Baby! Yes, We're Going to the Dog Park, Going to the Dog Park Baby!

Mom says I should do commercials for Subaru. What do you think?

This is the trail to Connors Lake at my favorite Dog Park.

By the time we get there I am ready for a big drink!

It's really pretty here and always lots of friends to play with...get a look at that Corgi!

Time to get in the game!

This may be my last swim for the season. Mom said this was the first time I wanted to quit and headed back to the trail. It was pretty chilly!



AND NOW FOR A PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT:

YORK SPCA: "Nikki", Blind Border Collie

Please see the attached pictures and story below about a sweet border collie who needs rescue. We have no fosters available at this time but this woman contacted Blind Dog Rescue Alliance about the dog. The words below are from an experienced rescuer/transporter who let us know that the dog was in need. If you are able to help please contact intake@blinddogrescue.com. We can get more contact information, etc. if needed. If you can not help but know of someone who may be able to help, please forward this message to them. Thank you in advance for your consideration of this sweet boy.
I was at York SPCA to evaluate some huskies today and checked out the sight impaired border collie as well. First, I apologize I didn't take any pictures of him. He is an intact male, all black with white on his chest and belly, about 4ish, named Nikki. He is SOOOO loving and affectionate. A great dog. I honestly can not tell if he is completely blind or has some distant sight. If he is completely blind he has kicked his other senses into overdrive and adapted greatly. He is not available yet. His owner is in prison and they just need to get paperwork signed by him so Nikki can become available. He is very sweet and put his front paws on me to get in my face and give kisses. Loves belly rubs. He does really well with other dogs, also.

If you can help Nikki, please contact:
