Hope Springs Eternal: The Little Dog That Could

by Jon Katz

I have the greatest admiration for Bud’s determination and drive. A year or so ago, he saw a chipmunk run-up that maple tree. Every day (like Rose and the imaginary squirrel) he goes to the base of the tree, looks up, barks from time to time.

Bud never quits, he never surrenders to the smallness of his being in a big world. His courage and focus is inspiring. One day….He’s got a couple of moles, but never a chipmunk…

  1. Love this photo, the caption and the story of the little dog that could! We, too, have a dog who is obsessed with chipmunks!

  2. Yes, I know all about being altitudinally challenged all my life at 5′ 6″ in height. Bud needs to understand that he ca go places other dogs, humans, etc., cannot go. I love your photo!
