A Photographer, 3 border collies … and the WooTWoo
This is a photo a friend of mine took at Briggs’ first agility trial. He was about 2 years old here. The photo is framed and sits in my office.
He was such a fine specimen of a dog. Dexter has big shoes to fill.
Happy Birthday Briggs. We miss you every day.
If you want to see an old lady run an old dog at the 2012 AAC Regionals, send money ... so I can pay someone to film without laughing at me ;-)
Finally, on your blog there is a spot to look at all the wonderful Woo shots. aaahhhh. beautiful.

Just wanted to say hi! and confess that I have become addicted to Three Woofs and a Woo. It's true. I have begun recommending it to my fellow dog cult members at the dog park. I am working from home right now, transcribing research interviews, and I use 3W&W as my break time.

RDM, you get some of the greatest photos EVER. Just love looking at your blog pics - my enjoyment is much enhanced by your commentary, naturally, but the pics would certainly be enough on their own!

You are obviously a very engaging writer, you take great pics, and your dogs... well words barely describe their wonder... have you ever thought about taking these antics and making them into childrens books. Something to the idea of 3 woofs and a woo: fifa goes missing. Or 3 woofs and a woo: look out hollywood. Just a thought.

i don't want you to go back to work, either, because i imagine this means you won't be updating your blog quite as often! :(
waaaah! :*(
(i admit it, i am addicted to your blog - i always have it open on a tab in my Firefox window.)

Food lady, it's usually tears of laughter you bring to my eyes,today was different. What a nice photo of him.
Happy birthday, handsome.
Happy Birthday Red Dog! You have big shoes to fill Dexter!!!!!
Happy birthday Red Dog! I came to this blog after you, but after scrolling through the archives, I feel honored to have seen some of your story and shed some tears in your memory. Those once-in-a-lifetime dogs are something special.
Happy Birthday to you, Briggs!
Woof! Happy Pawday Big Red Dog!!! Sure great photo full of great memories … Dexter sure have a big shoe to fill in. Lots of Golden Woofs, Sugar
Happy Birthday Red Dog. Dexter … Just be Dexter and Food Lady will love ya.
A friend told me the price of a good dog is a broken heart. So true. It's still worth it.
Happy Birthday, Briggs. We miss you.
And Dexter, listen to the reader who said to be yourself and the food lady will love you!
Happy Birthday Briggs. I peak at your Scottish hat picture on The Food Lady's flickr page every now and again and it always makes me smile.
Happy Birthday, Red Dog.
He is lovely in this photograph but there was so much more character and nobleness in his face in his later years. No one will fill his shoes but Dexter may grow into shoes equal to his. I think Red Dog would approve of Dexter.
Happy Birthday Briggs. You sure were a beauty!
Happy B-day big boy. Your adoring fans miss you.
Happy birthday, old boy. You left a very big hole.
Happy Birthday Big Red Doggy

Food lady, I am so happy that you were able to make so many memories with such a wonderful pooch, and shared some of them with us. May the others comfort you and make you laugh today, and every day. I'll give my pup an extra cookie for Red Dog.
What a photogenic fellow! Wishing you all the comfort that the woofs and Woo can offer you today, Food Lady.
Barra's 13th birthday was January 24, believe it or not. I cherish every single moment I have with her, both for myself and in memory of the Good Dogs That Went Too Soon. Happy birthday Briggs, you reddest of Red Dogs.
Happy belated birthday, Red Dog. Good dogs positively affect a few people's lives. Great dogs positively impact the whole Internetz.
:)
Happy Birthday, Red Dog.
Happy birthday big sweetie. All your fans miss you :(
Happy Birthday RD! Wherever you are, bark free and we all miss you here.
Aww, what a handsome boy he was. I don't think I'd ever seen a pic of him as a young'un.
Happy birthday, Briggs.

So sad, I came along after Red Dog and haven't yet caught his story. His photo is beautiful and those eyes…. Happy Birthday boy!
