Dogs and Pagodas are a perfect combination!  Koda loves to sit on the back bench with a leash attached to his chest harness and bark at other animals.

Hi Tom,

I wonder how those cats would enjoy a spring cruise in the car.  Would they stick their heads out the side? 

They do look comfortable in the garage though.

The cats don't want to be anywhere near when I start it up.

You guys do know you can rotate pictures, even after you've uploaded them?

I fixed the first post for you.

i took my fairly big dog along, a golden retriever, he was sitting in the back and found that it would much reduce the draft hitting my neck. So I constructed a windschott and later bought one from Germany. It works very well and proves that my dog is much smarter than myself!
