Buddy and his chewie

My wife Holly used her cell phone to take a photo of our dog 
Buddy chewing a chewie in the backyard. Normally, he's afraid 
of cameras, but I guess he didn't see the cell phone as a threat.

Head games with Buddy


BUDDY WAS AFRAID OF THE CAMERA.
OUR BOY BUDDY doesn't go through the dog door like Lady does. She goes through slowly, making one step at a time. Buddy goes charging through, often tearing up the gasket around the flap.

One day, I got a bright idea that didn't work. I decided to lower the metal dog door a few inches to force Buddy to slow down. The next day, I was upstairs and heard "DING!", "THUD."

Fearing the worst, I ran downstairs, and Buddy was sitting and swaying back and forth. I checked him out and found no blood, only a knot on his head, and his eyes weren't hurt.

Fortunately, he hit his least vulnerable spot.

And, yes, I moved the dog door back to its normal spot.

NOTE: Buddy died on Oct. 28, 2011.
