Early Spring, We Hike this Hi Desert!

Butterflies and little lizards! Doggie and Mistress go for a long hike in Pugh Canyon. Mistress is happy to see the Cottonwood trees budding. Doggie doesn't look up that far but likes the smelly sage and vetch beginning to bloom around her nose. Sneezes! Little long-tailed lizards scurry left and right keeping Doggie busy, I can find them under sagebrush, leap and pounce - I am Cairn Terrier - the Terror Terrier! - and the Best at finding little treasures that scurry! 
But what does Doggie do with them then? That is a philosophical question. I am not Cat, I do not want to pounce and snatch. Doggie will run and bounce then run back to Mistress or chase a butterfly that stays safely above Doggie's acrobatics. 

Doggie has learned to float in the air jumping across rocks and ouch, not land on thorny cactus again. Doggie is a true Desert Dog now. Jumping across big rocks is wonderful and tricky, Doggie is so proud! We are adventure hikers but Doggie knows that Desert has some naughty things Doggie needs to avoid. Like those rattly snakes who coil and Mistress warns zap? And, I know, those sharp-pinned cactus and thorn-like tumbly weeds. Uh'oh, life is about remaining conscious and aware and  - doing the happiness dance!

Doggie sends you her best in the mumble-jumble of life.  Pat-a-Paw!
