Mitchell Cove in Santa Cruz, just north of Lighthouse State Park, yesterday evening.

For all those non-pet owners who like to visit our house, I would ask that you please remember these simple rules:

They live here. You don’t.
If you don’t want their hair on your clothes, stay off the furniture. That’s why they call it furniture.
I like my pets a lot better than I like most people.
To you, they are animals. To me, they are adopted sons & daughters who are short, hairy,walk on all fours and don’t speak clearly.

When loved ones come home, always run to greet them.
When it’s in your best interest, practice obedience.
Let others know when they’ve invaded your territory.
Take naps.
Stretch before rising.
Run, romp, and play daily.
Avoid biting when a simple growl will do.
On hot days, drink lots of water, and lie under a shady tree.
When you’re happy, dance around, and wag your entire body.
Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.
Eat with gusto and enthusiasm. Stop when you have had enough.
Be loyal. Never pretend to be something you’re not.
When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by, and nuzzle them gently.
