Corky Riding 03-25-09

I had never been around dogs that ride in cars until I met Corky. At six months he was riding like a pro and I have never seen him the slightest bit disturbed. He likes to go fast and will complain when I slow down to exit the freeway/highway. Sometimes when we are in his neighborhood or mine I roll down the windows and only go about 20 MPH - I guess most dogs love to have the wind blowing in their face. Weird, eh?

People are amused when they look over and see him sitting up in the seat looking through the windshield - a real navigator look. But I worry about the sun in his eyes, maybe I should get him sun goggles.

Sometimes he sits looking at me as though he is going to make a comment. Here the wind has fluffed up his ears.

And today he was just tired, so he propped his chin on the edge of his bed and went to sleep. He is home with the Poodle Parents tonight and, as usual, I miss him.

Being carried 08-26-07

Since I have been gone for such a long stretch of time I haven't taken any pictures of Corky lately. But I have a million in my Picasa files.

This picture is from March 4, 2007, taken in front of Doris Day's Cypress Inn in Carmel, CA. They allow dogs as guests and there were a lot of dogs in residence - I was amazed at how well they all got along. Not a great picture of either Corky or his mommy, but one that holds great memories.

I've always liked this one of Corky and his mommy taken in the upstairs hall in Long Beach.
