Crotch Rocket


Zeke’s nose is a crotch rocket. (Steve came up with that title for this blog entry). For those of you who don’t know Zeke, he is our 7 year old dog. He is a mutt, but we had come up with the name Ger-hound-ita because he appears to be a mix of german shepherd, greyhound, and akita. Anyway…he loves to immediately sniff crotches and bums when people come over. One of his traits that we don’t like…but many of you have experienced this. Zeke has slowed down a little this year, nothing major, just walks a little slower around the house and naps more often. I’m sure he is looking forward to biking season with Steve.

We also have our border collie Tippy who is now 6 years old. She is a very loving dog who can be very mischievous when given too much time alone. Tippy particularly loves my Dad, who was her original owner…and Kenn Whitney, one of our friends. She inches her way up on the couch when they come over for a visit and eventually we look over and she is on their laps.

We love our dogs and try to spend time with them. Unfortunately they have taken a back seat to the kids so we don’t get to take them out as much as we should. Zeke is very strong and hard to hold on a leash, so taking both kids and both dogs proves to be very difficult. I do love it when all 6 of us can go on a walk…me with the kids and Steve with the dogs.
