Smile on Saturday: Shades of Brown.
It was so hard to choose! Wombats, Wallabies, Quolls, Kangaroos, Koalas, Coffee or Kahn. In the end I took a new one of Kahn our Brindle Boxer in the bush :)

Daily Dog Challenge: It's all in the detail
Detail of the swirl on Kahn's left shoulder and the beautiful Brindle. Our old white Boxer, Hugo, had a swirl on each shoulder & Etta doesn't have any. No idea what that means :)
Daily Dog Challenge: Special
I think Kahn's Brindle coat is pretty special, especially when it glows in the Winter sun like this :)
After nailing the Cleveland Clowns today, and clinching our playoff spot, we were all fired up (I swear the announcers used the word "demoralizing" in reference to the Browns at least 10 times throughout the game). We were strutting our Steelers merchandise out in the street proudly. Although it looks like Mike's peeing on that tree, he was actually just trying to show off his matching jacket.
Side note: Yes, Arch does have a prong collar on. I was really afraid to use the thing, but it's not even half as bad as it seems. So far he's only pinched himself on it a handful of times. The rest of the time, we walk with a slack leash as a result of those few pinches. It was just becoming dangerous for us (especially me) to walk him, as powerful as he is. He really doesn't pull us much anywhere but the dog park. Other than that, he only ever pulls to see dogs, but it's nothing that a few tugs on his choker wouldn't fix. We had a bad experience the other day though as we tried to keep him from pulling to the off-leash area of our park. There were ice patches everywhere and he didn't stop pulling for the entire 5-minute walk from the entrance of the park, to the gates of the off-leash area. We decided to try and teach him that if he pulls, we start over at the beginning of the path. We tried this method hour upon hour in the freezing cold, but he just wouldn't cooperate.
That was the last straw, and I finally accepted that we would need more than just persistence to solve this problem. I can truly say that the prong collar has been exactly what we needed, and it hasn't left a single red mark on our little boy's neck. He's really learning that it's not okay to pull-- and from what we hear, he shouldn't need to keep wearing it. Once he gets it, he should continue to be that way forever with or without the prong collar on him. I know that some people might disagree with tools like this, but me and Mike would never do anything to hurt our boy. We've realized that the occasional pinch is much safer than the risk we take of him pulling one of us over and getting away, possibly into the street.

It was nearly fifty years ago that this locomotive was consigned to Barry scrapyard. Some 15 years after it's demise it was rescued and was to be used as spare parts for sister locomotive Leander. Instead it has been rebuilt and here we see the rebirth of this Jubilee class locomotive on its loaded test run passing Brindle on the 16/04/2013.
With the sun starting to go down West Coast Railways 57313 is pictured as it roars past Brindle with a return railtour to Hereford.
A fine view of the size and affability of our one-year-old Newfy/Mastiff mix, Sofa. He gained ten pounds in one week. Literally. He is simply the best dog ever.
45699 catches the early morning sun as it heads "The Lune Rivers Trust" railtour from Carnforth - Chester, seen here passing Brindle.
37401 passes Brindle with the Warrington-Blackburn vans on 29/4/2009.At the time,this was a fairly regular turn for the few remaining DBS 37s - since then this engine has enjoyed a new lease of life with DRS.
I do have painful memories of this shot - I managed to gash my hand badly on the barbed wire fence,blood was gushing out as the train approached and I needed a visit to A+E to get stitches !
