HENRY & NICO'S CORNER
Beach time is happy time!
beach time = happy dogs!
Fall came around so fast - weren't we galloping under the sun at the beach just yesterday? Today, the leaves are drifting from the branches above to snout-sniff level below, crunching under-paw on a morning hike in Berkeley. 
leaves are crunchy under-paw
still life: pug paw, autumnal foliage
 
The dog days of Indian summer might be gone, but there's still plently to sniff, dig, and chase. In fact, Nico met a red fox on a walk through Tilden Park and decided to bolt after him! I'll be frank, it gave us quite a scare.. Fortunately, that sneaky fox gave Nico the slip (not an easy feat), pheee-ew!!
Perhaps he recognized his furry friend from the LINEA CARTA linen collection and just had to meet him in person?
