Slightly OT
Just talked to my neighbor in our back lot. He had to put his Frenchie Notchy down last Wednesday. Notchy was an old black dog with a notch on her ear. She’d been going down to cancer and had a large tumor on her mouth. Sweet dog. She has very territorial about their veranda and would chase Yuki off it but she had a linear attack - basically a frontal charge - and Yuki’s best skill is serpentining and sidestepping, so invariably Notch would charge and Yuki would evade.
I feel bad for her owner, Luigi. He’s a bachelor around our age, lives alone with now just one remaining dog that is also very old, in the ramshackle house at the back of the lot. He works maintenance at the Boardwalk. He’s a very pleasant fellow but he’s had both dogs since they were pups.
Goodnight Notchy.
