COWBOY......

posing in mono form for monoMonday and one of our beloved pets!  I couldn't get any successful shots or poses from Sadie (black lab mix)  or Pooters (our wee black cat).   Cowboy is 9 1/2 years old as is Saddie---more or less.  Cowboy we brought home in a huge snowstorm---a rescue pup living in Prosser Wa. at a rescue home for dogs---he was only a few weeks old and had some issues caused very young that makes him very wary and caucious---but he is adorable and lovable and hightly intelligent.  Sadie is a bit older...by a few months and was a rescue dog of the daughter of our friend Barb. Barb's daughter died a few years ago now of Pancreatic cancer----we adopted Sadie then as Barb wanted us to and she and Cowboy got along and still do very well.  Pooters we also got from Barb's daughter many many years ago...He must be 15 yrs. by now.  
      Also a very Happy 91st to my M i L who lives in Pa. and to fellow blipper Skip who lives in my childhood state of Ohio:)
