Welcome to Dogblogging

With fond memories of her favorite Peace Corps friend Michael Jackson (Sorry Margaret, Scott, Lisa, Kim, Bobby Kennedy, et al), Serena visited the local animal shelter and couldn't resist the urge. Less than a week later and we have this:

Introducing: Baobab. Named after this awesome tree found in Africa, this little guy, a quintessential Africa mutt, had been at the shelter for 14 months so. As you can imagine, he's a bit odd. Oddity number one: note the Serena hair dangling from mouth. That's odd.

Odd pose:

And finally, an oddly long neck:


He is weird, a handful, and now the subject of weekly dogblogging installments inspired by my favorite daily read: Kevin Drum over at Mother Jones.

  4. Mom: Nope and not as well behaved. We're working on it...
    Samantha: Yes! Now all we have to do is ship one of them to the other, unless Bola is up for a looong swim?
