A Boxer Dog

Harry is pictured here near the punt roller in the University Parks in Oxford. He looks OK but...

Last week Harry was involved in a rather nasty fight. It happened when my wife was walking him. There was a boxer dog coming his way on a narrow path. Being a terrier, Harry did not give ground when there was a confrontation, and ended up coming off worse with his head stuck in the boxer dog's mouth. My wife was screaming....

They were pulled apart, and except for a cut on his eyelid Harry was fine. But it was a salutary lesson... when it comes to boxer dogs Harry should not lead with the head.

Harry on Blewburton Hill

On this walk Harry seemed haunted by the different smells. There were mutton and rabbit up on Blewburton Hill.

(This weekend's pictures should have been Harry with a low microphone performing at Abingdon's Got talent, but then I went and lost the camera while playing chase the stick in the Abbey Meadows. So if anybody finds a Canon Powershot with a picture of Harry just drop it off at our house. £5 reward.)

Close up

Harry has just been in the water which is why he has a wet muzzle.

A South Parks Carnival Reject

The security men at the gates of South Parks, in Oxford, would not allow Dogs into The Carnival. This led to many arguments and protests by dog owners who expected it to be a doggy event. Not only were dogs not allowed in, but also some people dressed up like gollys got thrown out by security.

Harry was disappointed at first, but in the end he enjoyed a run round at Warneford Meadow.

Pre Season Rugby Training

It look like Harry is getting in some pre-season Rugby training . He is seen here practising the line out.
