Erica, yeah. His owner came pick him up from us Saturday. My house is quiet again. Lol.

Liz, the most Mishka had killed has been some lizards. Him and the pup had a dead bird the other day too but I don't know if they killed it or it was already dead. We live in the middle of a populated area but not right next to woods so our wildlife is limited.

So exciting! I bet Mishka will be thrilled to have a sibling

Oh he will definitely love a sibling, but I think when we do end up getting a second the puppy will need to be younger. I'm also definitely going to wait another year or so before getting a puppy. I am hoping he'll chill out and I can possibly work on his resource guarding.

Mishka is 1 year and 2 months old!

















On his "throne" the hot tub.


The entrance he created through our porch screen...

Hahaha, the last couple pics are hilarious.

Mishka's such a handsome boy. He looks amazing! Happy one year, two month birthday, Mishka!

Great pics of a handsome dog

What kind of lens did you use to take those?

Thank you! He frequents the hot tub. I was quite confused when he first managed to get on top of it then I saw his self made doorway...

Thank you!

I use a Canon 17-40mm f/4L lens. It was a Christmas present several years back. I love it and my cheap little 50mm f/1.8 lens.

He's so gorgeous! Great pictures!   

The hubby and I took Mishka Wednesday to a nearby nature trail. I've lived in this city my entire life and had no idea it existed until recently. Lol. It was really nice, if a bit short.

Looks like Mishka found something fun to roll in, haha. He's so friggin' handsome! The surrounding scenery isn't bad, either. Gorgeous!

That looks like an awesome trail! All I have is desert mountains lol.

It looks very similar to a state park I stayed at in Louisiana. Tickfaw State Park I think it was called.

He looks very happy to be getting out and about

Oh yeah. I took him again today and he was rolling in nutria poo.

It's really nice, but it's really short. Less than half a mile long.

I've been to Tickfaw. It's pretty nice. We went hiking up there before years ago. It's nothing compared to Clark Creek though. That remains my favorite place to go hiking around here.

Happy 15 months to my little fluff butt!

Haha, what is he after?

They had a squirrel that ran across the fence so he went hopping after it.

Ah yes, the worst of all-squirrels.

It's really too bad our raw food supplier doesn't carry squirrel

Well, your possum story was gross, so chasing squirrels is nothing.

Yeah. It was even worse in person. Lol. I'd rather not have another encounter like that for a while.

I'm okay with squirrel chasing! They run and they aren't stupid enough to stay in the yard.

What a sweet face. I love the pic where he's standing by the fence and looking at the camera. It's like he's asking, "Um, can you help me over the fence so I can catch that squirrel, please?"

Ohh I love the hiking photos! He looks so adorable rolling in the grass

We got Mishka's Palisades Pack in today! He wasn't too happy about putting it on but oh well!

Some pictures from the past couple of days!

Oh wow - He is a majestic boy!! Your photos are beautiful. He looks a bit like Dizzy in the eyes, no?

His snout looks so good, and he looks so happy in the pool. I agree with Amy -- he does kind of look like Diz in the eyes, especially when they're closed.

Thank you so much! Haha. They are sort of similar.

His nose is looking better but it's still not 100%. I'm ready to wrestle him to the ground and force some topical meds on him since we're done the oral ones.

He looooves his pool. I'd love to get him to swim in a real pool one day.
