well, i'm going to jackson ...


jackson II, originally uploaded by pr9000.


Trotter has a "best friend" (insofar as dogs can have best friends) about four houses down. Jackson is 85 pounds of pure golden retriever muscle; he slammed into my foot last summer and I was certain he a broke a few of my toes. He's strong.

He's also not fixed, and if one dog year is like seven human years, he's about 19 years old and still a virgin. So you can imagine the energy he's got. In fact, I don't have to imagine it, but that's another story for another blog post ...

He came over for a "playdate" today -- yes, I can hear you thinking it, but we don't need a real child, thankyouverymuch -- and the two of them wore each other out in the back yard. Jackson is a very hard dog to photograph sitting still, so I'm kind of proud that I managed to get this one.
