![]() Family Photo at Canoa Good evening all, by overwhelming request for a year or more here is a recent photo of our little family! To say this was a difficult picture to take would be the understatement of the year. I had the camera on a tripod, timer set to 20 seconds and then I would run and try to get myself in the picture, you just can’t believe how hard this was with four dogs and having to climb a little cliff each time!! Inca was by far the best she never moved an inch the whole time, she is now so trained to stay and wait for me to take her picture no matter how long it may take. The puppy Aimee is holding we have temporarily named Brave Heart, and the other with the bird design on her chest is little Raven and of course Aimee’s pride and joy Indi. You can kind of see our Curacao Flag Day shirts everyone in Curacao had these on Thursday it was quite the site. I hope this is to everyone’s satisfaction as you won’t get another for at least a year as I hate to have my photo taken, runs in the family!!
I just got back home from a walk with the dogs and had a close encounter with a local island man! We were out on the trails behind the aquarium when this local island man came walking down a dirt road holding two big rocks! Well playful Indi immediately ran to him (not barking) to say hi but he was frozen in fear thinking Indi and Inca were going to attack although neither dog ever let out a bark! He had his arms up ready to throw the rocks at the dogs and in the loudest voice I could muster I said “throw that rock and your a dead man”!! This guy was psycho! He was yelling “call em off”, “call em off” I was yelling put the rocks down and stop yelling and they will stop bothering you, your just drawing attention to yourself! It was a real mess but ended up turning out alright! I finally calmed him down and showed him that the dogs are as nice as dogs get and Indi just wants to play, she doesn’t want to bite you! He told me he has problems all the time with wild dogs attacking him, I told him maybe if your not so defensive in the beginning they may leave you alone? So in the end as we parted I made him pet Inca and Indi and remember these two dogs if he passes thru here again. That’s a big heads up to you others that walk my trails that these locals who are scared of dogs are very unpredictable so be careful!
The rain we got was so great!! It was overcast most of the day and rained all over the island we really need it. We still have both puppies, please help us find homes!! Happy Fourth of July, Barry
