Squirrel tempts fate

I took Cowboy & Tess up to visit my friend Carol at the assisted living facility in Downey this morning (with very little work they'd both be excellent therapy dogs). On the way home I decided to swing by the Long Beach Dog Park, my old stomping grounds, to let them run off their pent-up energy. 

It wasn't long before they spotted a squirrel on a tree just outside the fence. And there they (and several other dogs) stayed as the squirrel ran up and down. I'd almost think he was deliberately teasing the dogs.

About the Bloggers

Daily Breeze reporter Donna Littlejohn has shared her homes with a succession of wonderful, funny, and occasionally difficult canines -- Muffin, Fritz, Ellie, Mercy, Pilgrim and now Cowboy, an Australian shepherd-border collie, and Tess, a border collie. From strong-willed terriers to weirdly obsessed Australian shepherds, they've invaded her world with boundless energy, wet noses, muddy paws and soggy tennis balls. But they've really brought so much more than that -- like laughter and joy, some unexpected life lessons, and more than a few tears along the way.

Josh Grossberg grew up with the usual array of animals: goldfish, dogs, hamsters, parakeets and turtles. He now owns the loudest dog in the South Bay(Video: Rocket the Dog) and is the least popular person on his block. He spends his free time in dog parks, pet shops and always has an extra plastic bag in his pocket just in case. He also has a cat.
