Hello again! Last week I went to the Bloedel Conservatory in Vancouver B.C. It was basically a giant tropical bird cage, filled with plants, exotic birds and mice! It was really fun, but also really crowded so some of the photos aren't as great as i wish they were. It was a great exercise in learning when to take the perfect shot as the birds didn't really care about my photos. I hope you like the pictures, i did my best. I'm also going to include some photos that aren't from the conservatory, but i have to share them.

Why did history follow the path that took Looty to Balmoral Castle, there to grow old with Victoria, rather than the one that took Albert to study Confucius in Beijing?

Illustrations from Lad: a Dog by Albert Payson Terhune. The illustrations are by Robert L Dickey, and the book was published in April of 1941.

Written in 1941 the stories are a tribute to the dogs of “the Place”, and emphasize just how much has changed in the way we treat our beloved animals now. I loved these books even as I was horrified by some of the ways the animals were “disciplined”. My first Collies were as wonderful as the Collies of the Place, as beautiful and as smart and as brave.

I like to think I was a much more informed trainer, but in actuality I was the one in training. I learned a lot from my Collies, just as I continue to learn from the dogs I have now. The illustrations in the books are wonderful, just look at that Saint Bernard from the early 1900s! I love old books.
