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

Penelope and Puppy
They are perhaps the oddest of odd couples. Penelope and the puppy. They are both playful and they have each found the other to be a willing playmate. There's no way he can keep up with her when she runs, but he loves the action and he runs after her. She runs in a big loop and comes charging back towards him or me for another encounter. She is more careful with him than she is with big dogs. Instead of crashing into him, she tends to go over or around him when their paths intersect. He cleans up the mess she makes when she eats, enjoying the slime-moistened bits of food she leaves behind. Both dogs are available for adoption through Green Dogs Unleashed.
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.
