The squirrel will give it to his mom.

He had to catch you first.

But chasing is part of the fun for a dog ;-)

He looks like he wants to wear buccaneer boots and swashbuckler hat so he can be like Puss in Boots.

What? And ruin the thrill of a chase? Not on your life….now sit still…..

It’s hard to ask when you’re running with a pad of paper and a pencil in your mouth.

Some people like to take photos of their meals, he likes to sketch them.

The squirrel muse…

Well, you see, it was like this…

To chase, or not to chase, that is the question:

Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer

The slings and arrows of artistic critique,

Or to take arms against a sea of talentless idiots

And by opposing end them. They die—to sleep,

No more; and by a sleep to say we end them.

The heart-ache and the thousand catty reviews

That flesh is heir to: ’tis a consummation

Devoutly to be ignored . To Draw, to sketch;

To sketch, perchance to enjoy—ay, there’s the rub:

“Draw me like one of your French squirrels, Jack…”

Do a good job, Dog …… Maybe the first Dog to get to have a squirrel pose for a sketch ….. ;)

Such a happy doggie! Her tail is wagging even as she draws. Love it! Thanks for the laugh, Mr Bliss.

Squirrels are always chasing each other

I once had a dog that took after a cat. But the cat stopped running and turned around to face him. He stopped too and turned to look at me. He didn’t know what to do.
