ZooZoo Disc Dog




My sweet little girlfriend, Zoozoo.  Always ready to jump in the car, go somewhere and play disc.  She never fails.  Nothing scares her.  She has drive.

This video was made of some old cell phone video of Zoozoo.  Okay, so I take a lot of cell phone video of Zoozoo.  Wide angle, fish eye, all that stuff, yeah.

Then I took a scrap of music and pinned it onto the mix.  Sounded okay, I thought.  I've done worse.  Is what I do like video scrapbooking?  Is video just the newest form of diary?  People in the future will make videos rather than write or just speak them. It's the ultimate creative sticky note, waiting to be scribbled on, waiting to be shouted at.

Recently I told a guy to chase a disc.  He was going to race Zoozoo to catch one.  Sounds like a good idea, huh?  Sure, right up until the time that Zoozoo jumps higher than the guy's head and destroys the disc about two feet away from him.

He came walking back with this stunned look on his face.  Like, 'you didn't just try to wipe me out with your dog, did you?'  I told him to count his fingers.  I'm not sure why I was vibing that I should be rough on this guy, but I was being rough on this guy.  However, he did get the upclose disc dog experience.  But, truthfully, I also told him that I wanted to make him close.  I didn't mean to scare him.  Either he or Zoozoo could have caught the disc, but I still would have bet on Zoozoo even if he hadn't pulled up short.

Maybe it's just because I've been a cranky old man lately. Did you just read that, Caryl?  Daddy just said he gets cranky.  Bing Crosby called and said we should move to Pocatello.

Tripaw Dock Dog




Kess the canine cancer survivor parties down at the 2012 Mutt March in Everett, Washington.  The event was a fundraiser for Chasing Away Canine Cancer and a local food bank.  Kess had terrible problems with her leg and lost it to cancer.  But more than anything Kess shows that it can be well worth the cost of treatment, especially when your canine friend makes an almost total recovery and can play and run and have fun again.

The other part of this event was a training session for the Puget Sound Dock Dogs.  They ran a really good training event.  I was impressed with them, they had something happening in the dock dog area all day long and were talking about coming back again for Sunday (June 4, 2012).  This event was in Everett, Washington, about 20 miles north of Seattle.
