DocsDoctor Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 (edited) Hi everybody Tiger's only been with me since 3 March - I posted an introductory thread about him here. I'm pleased to say he continues to settle in really well - no more problems with resource guarding, so far at least Since last week we've been in lockdown, here in London, so are now only able to take a walk once a day. I must admit I'd been worrying a bit about how he would cope with losing his second walk of the day.... It turned out I needn't have worried, here he is "helping" me in the garden instead Edited March 30, 2020 by DocsDoctor Picture not showing Quote Clare with Tiger (Snapper Gar, b. 18/05/2015), and remembering Ken (Boomtown Ken, 01/05/2011-21/02/2020) and Doc (Barefoot Doctor, 20/08/2001-15/04/2015)."It is also to be noted of every species, that the handsomest of each move best ... and beasts of the most elegant form, always excel in speed; of this, the horse and greyhound are beautiful examples."----Wiliam Hogarth, The Analysis of Beauty, 1753.

DocsDoctor Posted April 1, 2020 Author Share Posted April 1, 2020 Well remembered @FiveRoooooers and @EllenEveBaz! The zodiac sundial paving is since Doc's time, but here is Ken reclining on it. I think the photo I posted before was probably a more elegant version, minus the yoga mat! But I can't find that one right now - and this one does give you a bit of an idea of the rest of the garden. Originally there was a lawn, but the paving and gravel is more practical, and also gave me the opportunity to expand the flower beds. When the sun hits the paving it is like a radiator and both Ken and now Tiger like to lie directly on it, at other times the yoga mat provides a welcome bit of padding. Unfortunately Tiger decided that must be good to eat the first time I got it out for him, so it now has a chunk out of the corner!
