Snapdragon...aka Antirrhinum majus. Picture taken this spring at Phipps Conservatory in Pittsburgh, PA.
Last night Charlotte went on walkabout. Now this is an issue that scares me greatly. As she is one of those Jack Russell dogs....and they can get caught up with the wrong crowd. I'm thinking Raccoons...I'm thinking Coyotes....I'm thinking Groundhogs. I much prefer that we go walkabout together. We went to the barn at about 8pm to do the last check. Usually she stays right around the barn yard. Well last night she just took off like a shot. She finally came home around midnight. Not a bit beat up. Just a little dirty. She was definitely digging on something.
She wasted no time jumping into bed and diving under the covers. Lights off after that and a good nights sleep. There is no way I was going to bed until she was back to the 'sugar shack'.

I'm so glad that Miss Charlotte came home safe and sound!
Porcupines come to mind as well. Glad she came home okay. What a stinker!
Oh - naughty dog. And thank goodness she came home...
Skunks comes to my mind, they leave such a lasting impression. They are nocturnal too!! Glad she came home safely..the twerp:)
Amy...Porcupines....nasty buggers! Would not want my girls to end up as a pin cushion. I've seen pictures of miserable jacks full of quills...Nasty.
Far Side...My Aunts Jack got sprayed by a skunk last thursday evening. NASTY!
