Toby in the woods

This last weekend, Toby and I went up in the woods behind the park. He wasn't really interested in playing with the other dogs today. The cold weather is setting in and he doesn't really want to hang out with other dogs. He's better off walking around and sniffing for the next spot to mark. It's funny how he goes from tree to tree, sniffing and marking all along the way. It doesn't matter if he's totally out of pee, he'll still go through the motions. It makes it even harder to take pictures of him. The only time he holds still, is when he's lifting his leg. This picture was posed and took lots of effort to get him to stay for the few seconds I took this picture.

Collie Origami worth noting.

Okay, I know this is totally off topic but I really wanted to share in this time of giving. What is better for a blogger to do but share such great work. It's just luck that I came across this work by Gen Hagiwara. He's got a bunch of cool dog origami work. The best part is that he's captured the personality in the dogs. Really great work. Enjoy.
