My Bonsai Protector

Brendan, for fun, if you go to my gallery you can see a picture of my tree. That's not the point, though. In the picture, in the upper left-hand corner, you can see a picture of me holding Murray when he was about 3 months old. Shows you I'm no photographer!
Best,
Paul

Sorry bonsaibeginner
In Australia its illegal to train boxers ears upwards, this is a typical depiction of what Australian's see boxers as day-to-day.

He's 7, and old bugger (whoops another Australianism, meaning old-fart, old-man i guess).

I have attached our other dog, a female boxer, shes a little wet, she got in the way of the daily bonsai watering - shes a sweetie

Attila, is that a Pouli? (sp?) If so, good looking one, if not, still a good looking dog. I have seen only two around here (same family has both) and they are sweet dogs.

BonsaiBeginner, I live out in the country. My wife and I rescue animals, dogs are coming and going through our lives daily. The mastiffs are a special breed that my wife simply adores and belongs to a Mastiff rescue organization, we have had 5 mastiffs come through, we have only kept Tabitha, because she was found at a puppy mill, and so overbread that her ACL's and hips are toast. We foster these animals til they are adopted out. The five I posted are actually all rescues, and we adopted them ourselves. We also give sanctuary to farm animals.....pigs, sheep, horses, cattle.

As a regular carnivore, its hard not to look outside and think Bar-b-que. Wife is a vegetarian........go figure.

Paul,

that's a Puli all right. He is a little bigger than average, but purebred Puli. When we have a backyard party and little children start running around, he herds them to the center of the yard in less than a minute.

bonsaibeginner--It's a small lake (about 10 miles around) in the Pocono mountains of northeastern pA. Our house and deck (which is where our bonsai live) tower over the lake. We're right on the edge of a large cliff that drops down to the lakeside road. It is very peaceful except when all the jetskis and speedboats come out to play. Honestly it's a little chunk of bonsai heaven on earth. That's south facing in the photo so lots of light indoor and out and lots of humidity.

Who said we only have cats and mame? Just kidding...actually the cat loves our trees....somcetimes even as a snack. Fortunately she's partial to indoor bonsai.
