Another rescued animal joins the menagerie. This is Roku, the
Japanese Chin. He has a liver problem and no one wanted him. Well, except us. His problem is easily treated with special diet and he's quite a happy fellow. He is learning to get along with everyone else in the house. Puppies are... high energy.
Anyway, here he is after a walk, lounging in the flower bed. The violets don't care that they're being sat on and the grape hyacinth colour is strangely influenced by the pure white of his fur. He's looking at a bee, going about it's business; thus the strange pose.

Roku is a small dog, but he doesn't let that stop him. He is very active when we walk, climbing on snowbanks and tree stumps. Here, he insists on climbing a large block of river ice to get a better view for his next foray.
We plant bird seed for the dogs and cats to nibble on during the winter. Roku in particular seems to appreciate having fresh greens!
It's no mistake. Roku is a Japanese Chin dog, and he likes flowers. His favourites are dandelions and chives. Our chives have spread about and there is a clump hanging over the sidewalk and he grabs one just about every time he goes by.
