Ultrastu Posted April 9, 2019 Report Share Posted April 9, 2019 My boy collects sticks from our walks and brings them home .he has his own special stick bucket in the garden for his faves .my dog ziggy likes to raid the bucket for a likey stick , which he steals and disapeares down the garden to chew it into matches. This annoys the boy but keeps the dog happy .i dont really want a big bucket of sticks and the dog is slowly working his way through them .i find the remains with my lawn mower most often. .

Walker570 Posted April 9, 2019 Report Share Posted April 9, 2019 Super story. Two years now since we lost our last dog...decison made it would be our last due to our age, so every dog we meet these days gets a hug and lots of fuss. You miss'em but the memories linger on in many ways. Hope that willow survives. We have a red flower horse chestnut I planted and one of our dogs is planted beneath that. It is now known as Sika's tree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spandit Posted April 10, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2019 When our large pond was dug, there was a lot of sediment that was laid down. It dried up over the summer and the dogs left their pawprints in the clay. Now it's refilled and a lot more sediment will have deposited - I like to think it's preserved their footprints permanently as fossils and maybe some palaeontologist in the far future will discover them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
