Dog Days

Vic has always been a dog lover. Her first dog was a Husky, and there are many stories of small lap dogs from her childhood. Vic's mom had a Shitzu, which I think is the type you should use as mops more than dog. Each to his own.

We live in Spring lake, Michigan. Just to the south of us, "over the bridge" is Grand Haven. Every year in August, we have the coast guard festival. This brings in all types, as they invade our small town for the first 2 weeks in August. Its a great time, lots to do with fam.

On the weekend, we were walking down by the waterfront, and happened upon a very large dog. If you don't know my wife, she is very approachable, and will make conversation with anyone. (I think I saw her talking to a tree once.) She talked to the owner on the boardwalk, and all we saw was him giving her a funny look and saying "No". Bev, my sister-in-law started laughing hysterically and said, "Did you know that a Mastodon was a dinosaur, and that dog is called a Mastiff!"

Vic likes animal planet, and watches breed all about it. I think she missed that show. Dog days come and go, but this one always get a good laugh with family and friends.
