Tomokee LOVES cats. Actually, we're not sure if he just loves cats, or he just doesn't know what to make of them. When he sees one, as long as it's not running, he will just stare and stare in a frozen posture. It's actually difficult to pull him away and continue the walk. Here he is "interacting" with Beau from the neighborhood. Here, he's staring at Athens, also from the neighborhood, who is retreating behind the car.
We decided to make a trip up to San Francisco and take Tomokee through Golden Gate Park. It's not an off-leash park, but it's still plenty of fun. There are lots of dogs, ducks, seagulls, and other life forms. Here's Tomokee on the shore of Stow Lake. (I'm always amazed that his rear end does not touch the ground when he sits) Here he is sitting in front of a tea house structure also on the shore of Stow Lake.
Tomokee is a labrador-some-kind-of-hound mixed breed dog who happens to to look just like a Beauceron, complete with double dewclaws. He was adopted from the Palo Animal Services in June, 2006. He was about 6 1/2 months old when we adopted him. He has very large platform-shoe-style feet. He will eat anything in site and is obsessed with playing with tennis balls.
Tomokee divides his time between Los Altos and San Francisco, California.
