Dash the Gourmet

Dash is a picky eater. What he likes one day may be out of favor the next. He eats sticks, dirt, rabbit droppings and insects, but often doesn't care for more nutritous fare. He's surprised me lately by eating the following with enthusiasm...

• Dried wild blueberries
• Tiny, unripe strawberries from the yard
  
• White stilton with blueberries
• Yogurt, Greek only
  
• Spanakopita (Greek spinach pie)
• Almonds roasted with salt and rosemary
• Fresh stevia leaves (an herb used for sweetening)
  

Go figure.

New Summer Hobbies

Dash has discovered two more ways to amuse himself this week. He is obsessed with one-liter water bottles and will push them at top speed around the yard with his nose. His other new hobby is a little gruesome; he stands in the yard at dusk and watches for fireflies. Any unfortunate enough to come close are promptly eaten.

Corgi Theme Song

A friend saw this picture of Dash and said, "They should play 'Low Rider' when Corgis are in the ring". I wonder if I'll ever be able to watch Corgis fly around the ring again without hearing that song...
