A rambling narrative about my life and my passion, dog rescue.

Dog walks
I've been hitting the trails with either Max or Sparky most days. Sparky is my personal trainer and preferred hiking companion, but Max really needs it, so I try to alternate days with them. I used to walk Molly and Emmylou together, but I think Max and Sparky together would be a bit much. I might try Max and Ochie together, or Max and Maya.
I have set a personal weight loss goal to reach by christmas. I'm not sure it's a reasonable goal, but it keeps me motivated to walk. Plus, I really enjoy it, it feels good, and the dogs love it. Max spotted a couple of deer yesterday and now he thinks he's the deer hunter, really keyed into any movement in the woods. It's just nice to see him act like a dog instead of a maniac.
This is a blog about my life, which until recently largely revolved around a dog rescue operation. Recently retired, we have moved to France for the next chapter of our lives. I write mostly, but not exclusively, about dogs. I am gay, with a very understanding husband; liberal Democrat; Kansas native and long time Virginia resident. We rescued, fostered, and/or adopted well over a thousand dogs through multiple rescue organizations over the past 25 years, large breed dogs, e.g. German Shepherd Dogs, Great Danes, Rottweilers and mutts. Anyone who voted for or supports the orange TACO turd (or any elected Republican) will please take themselves out with the trash, you are not welcome here.
