Most of you know my dog from his occasional appearances on this blog. You may know him as the neighborhood rat catcher, as a tireless explorer of urban nature, as the unwitting subject of my research, and as a supremely patient model.
A sign at St. John the Divine: “HOLD CLOSE THY LOVED. Please keep dogs on a leash.”
Some of you may even remember the first time he impersonated the great Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen.
Ibsen in the snow.
But what you don’t know – I myself only found out last week, when I took the photo below – is that for his own mysterious reasons (ah, who can fathom the mind of such a dog?), Strider, aka Esau, has been secretly perfecting his Ibsen impression.
Trick or treat.
Trick or treat?
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
