She lived to the age of 20. In that long life she was attacked by two greyhounds out hare coursing, two rottweilers, and four bull-nosed terriers. The worst was the terrier attack - they had her by her throat and their owner had to strangle his dogs to get them off. Why would you want dogs like that?...
Prairie dogs (Cynomys) are burrowing rodents native to the grasslands of North America. They are a type of ground squirrel. On average, these stout-bodied rodents will grow to be between 30–40 centimetres (12–16 in) long, including the short tail and weigh between 0.5–1.5 kilograms (1–3 lb). They are found in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. In Mexico, prairie dogs are primarily found in the northern states which are the southern end of the great plains: northeastern Sonora, north and northeastern Chihuahua, northern Coahuila, northern Nuevo León, and northern Tamaulipas; in the U.S., they range primarily west of the Mississippi River, though they have also been introduced in a few eastern locales. They will eat all sorts of vegetables and fruits.Prairie dogs raise their heads from their burrows in response to disturbancesPrairie dogs are named for their habitat and warning call, which sounds similar to a dog's bark. Its genus, Cynomys, derives from the Greek for dog mouse.Highly social, prairie dogs live in large colonies or "towns" – collections of prairie dog families that can span hundreds of acres. Families usually consist of 1 male and 2 to 4 females living in a strict social hierarchy. Prairie dog pups reach sexual maturity at about 3 years of age, and after their third winter the dominant male in a given family will drive them away, forcing them to establish their own families on the edges of the colony. The dominant male will defend the family's borders against rival prairie dogs, and disputes are resolved by fighting. Prairie dogs are also aggressive against predators such as badgers and snakes. Prairie dogs are social animals, however, and often make social visits with each other, and greet each other with a sort of kiss.[5] Prairie dogs employ a complex form of communication that involves barks and rhythmic chirps.
Prairie dogs showing affectionPrairie dog tunnel systems help channel rainwater into the water table to prevent runoff and erosion, and can also serve to change the composition of the soil in a region by reversing soil compaction that can be a result of cattle grazing. The tunnels usually have several chambers. Tunnels can descend vertically as much as 5 metres (16 ft), and can extend laterally as much as 30 metres (98 ft). Prairie dogs line their burrows with grass to insulate them, and the earth excavated from the burrow is piled up in mounds around the burrow's entrance. The prairie dogs use these carefully maintained mounds as observation posts.The prairie dog is well adapted to predators. Using its dichromatic color vision, it can detect predators from a far distance and then alert other prairie dogs to the danger with a special, high-pitched call. Con Slobodchikoff and others assert that prairie dogs use a sophisticated system of vocal communication to describe specific predators. Prairie dogs also trim the vegetation around their colonies, perhaps to remove any cover for predators. Their burrows generally contain several routes of escape.The prairie dog is chiefly herbivorous, though it eats some insects. It feeds primarily on grasses and, in the fall, broadleaf forbs. Prairie dogs have 1-6 pups (babies) yearly, which are born blind and furless and need about 30 days of close nurturing from their mother.Sometimes two prairie dogs touch teeth with each other. Researchers think they do this as a way of recognizing each other.
I cani della prateria (Cynomys) sono un genere di mammiferi appartenenti all'ordine dei Roditori e alla famiglia Sciuridae, indigeno delle praterie americane.
Nonostante il nome, non sono dunque canidi, bensì roditori, della stessa famiglia delle marmotte. Devono il loro nome ad un suono, simile ad un latrato, che emettono in caso di pericolo. Diversamente dalle marmotte, non vanno in letargo.Pesano da 800 a 1500 gr per ca 30-35 cm di lunghezza.Sono animali estremamente socievoli e vivono in larghe colonie, formate da gruppi familiari di un maschio, 3-4 femmine e i piccoli dell'anno. La femmina, dopo una gestazione di 36 giorni, mette al mondo da 2 a 4 piccoli, che nascono molto immaturi e necessitano delle cure materne prima di poter uscire dal nido per almeno altri 30 giorni. Allo stato selvatico vivono per circa 5 anni, in cattività fino a 8 o 10.I cani della prateria sono animali dotati di elevata intelligenza e capaci di emettere più di 25 suoni diversi in base al tipo di pericolo che si avvicina (un uccello, un bovino, un uomo ecc.).

Yes, we know that mom is not here that much, and we all miss you very much!
But she's working a lot this Summer, and when she has some free time she is in Facebook... She says that most of her Flickr friends are there also... But we don't care, we like Flickr and begged her to upload a photo of us here. And here we are to greet you with a deep look in your eyes!
She also said that she'll try to upload more often here...
Sim, sabemos que a mamãe não vem aqui muito frequente, e nós sentimos muitas saudades de todos vocês. Mas ela está trabalhando demais esse verão e quando ela tem algum tempinho livre ela vai ao Facebook... ela diz que a maioria dos amigos daqui estão lá também... Mas nós gostamos do Flickr e imploramos para ela colocar uma foto nossa aqui. E aqui estamos olhando vocês bem profundamente dentro dos olhos!
Ela também nos garantiu que vai tentar colocar fotos mais frequente aqui...
Happy Furry Friday. This is Max. For those who haven't met him, he's my brother's dog, and malemute/wolf cross bred as a pet by a sled dog breeder in northern BC. He's 160lbs( 74kgs) of sweetheart. He sheds enough for a sweater every couple of days, never goes anywhere without his tennis ball, and just charms everyone he meets.
I'm hoping to ease back into this. Got a few things done, among them presenting a counter proposal to income tax on a balance they want from me. Once they've had a good laugh, I'm sure they'll be in touch, and we'll see where we go from there.

Boz is the 1st dog we've had who thought the Pumpkin costume was a big chew toy...
He was so cool thru the 1st half of his portraits, then at some point he thought it'd be fun to chew on the Pumpkin. He was hilarious...
