I Spy With My Little Eye K9 In The Strangest Places
From Philip Dick.com – Time Out Of Joint :
Is this to say that Ragle is still a child who cannot face his responsibilities ? Ragle Gumm crosses all levels of reality, but he is certainly on the side of childhood. Is he a great child ?
This is no longer the action of a child refusing to grow up. This is, on the contrary, the action of an adult who accepts his childhood and its dreams not strangled by tyranny, and who recognizes that from these childhood dreams springs the ultimate leap that constitutes mankind’s greatness. In the dreams of the child, the adult finds the keys of a freedom that is no longer an illusion.

I can totally see the dog in the rock 😀
I posted this morning about my first dog…
How did your present dog’s visit to the dog surgeon go ?
About animals in general. I’ve found a wild deer hiding away in the undergrowth close by. I go to see him to make sure he’s OK and leave him a bit of food. He’s very skittish – animals defence mechanisms are awesome – and as I approached from a distance he ran off and I watched him pronking with tears rolling down my face. Indescribable.
Scientists have researched pronking to see why deer pronk. Is there a purpose to it such as a defence or for attracting a mate. The consensus answer to this is no. The answer seems to be because they can.
She had 10 teeth removed and she goes back next week to have another 4 taken out. Understandably she’s a bit clingy. According to the vet, Dachshunds’ teeth are notorious for rotting.
