A visit from Gecko & Sebastian
Hi,
These past two weeks, we've had two wee visitors: Gecko, a mixed breed (mini- Dachshund x Poodle cross is the best guess so far) and Sebastian, a Papillion. Three year old Sebastian is something like 8 lbs but has 100 lbs of attitude and Lucy is deeply respectful of him. The second day, Sebastian walked up to a dozing Lucy, sniffed her over and then anointed her. I guess it's official then, Lucy is his bitch. Pablo doesn't care either way but he is pleased that Sebastian is keeping Lucy in check for him. Gecko is 11 and just a happy sweet old guy. When S & G came to stay, I put their crates in the kitchen and moved Lucy's crate in our bedroom. The first evening when I was fixing dog dinner, a hungry Lucy ran to Gecko's crate and squeezed herself inside it. Gecko's crate is large for a toy dog but still, I was surprised that Lucy could get into it. Of course I didn't have my camera on hand so yesterday I recreated the event and asked Lucy to get into Gecko's crate. Lucy doesn't know the stay command so I had to shut the door to take the photo. In the photo, her shoulders are pressed against the top of the crate. BTW, I've been playing with my new camera, a Panasonic Lumix FZ-10. It has a Leica lens and goes to 12X optical zoom. This is a great camera. Sebastian is a ham and loves to be photographed but Gecko gets inhibited. He normally goes around with this happy smile but as soon as I point a camera at him, he gets somber. I did manage to get two shots of Gecko smiling by dancing around with his food dish in one hand and my camera in the other all the while singing the "happy suppertime" song. To see little Sebastian, Gecko, and the highly squishable Lucy go to: http://f2.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/chrisjjung/my_photos .
