That’s our Buddy -- dedicated in his attempt at keeping our backyard squirrel free. When he sees a squirrel trespassing on our property, usually on the privacy fence, that’s his call to duty. Now the squirrel has a choice of jumping into one of two dog-free neighbor’s yards, but always chooses the challenge of ours. When Buddy has a squirrel up a tree, he is on guard until the critter makes a break for it no matter what the weather brings and no matter how long he has to stand watch. Last night I had to make him come inside well after dark. Would you believe the squirrel was back first thing this morning? Hmmm, I guess he is dedicated too. Come Monday, he’ll think all his persistence paid off and the crazy old dog finally gave up. Well, let him think what he wants – come Spring, we’ll be back.
