Gopher It

Posted on 01. Apr, 2009 by Mark in Dogs

I was going back through my archives after a recent shoot and looking for any Weimarener photos – I’ll be darned if there were only two among the countless mixed breeds, terriers (no offense, Biz), Bulldogs, dachshunds, pitbulls and shepherds.

A couple of weekends ago I had the chance to photograph a dressage clinic down in Morgan Hill (photos of that coming soon) and was delighted to learn that the facility where the event was held had a resident Weimarener named Sylvie. Sylvie didn’t make an appearance until late in the day but when she did it was definitely dramatic. One of her favorite pastimes is catching gophers and she decided to trot her latest trophy over for everyone to see. Check it out…but perhaps not on a full stomach

Is that a gopher between your paws or are you glad to see me?

Yup, that was a gopher

Sure hope you're coming back from brushing your teeth

Stoic even after a gopher chaser...

Gophers are a lot like Tequila -- the kick catches up with you
