Sipping on my coffee and chasing flies, I waited for the Dogs to rise and shine. They seemed dead to the world as the sun rose above the tree tops. It was after 07:00 am and I had already encountered a Hyena on the road less than a 100 meters away from where the dogs were sleeping, but the Dogs were oblivious to what was going on. That Hyena had a good smell around my car then pushed off after checking the area for any interesting scraps to eat.
Maybe they needed the rest if they had still hunted when I left them yesterday at sunset; regardless, I had now been waiting for two hours for them to seize the day. I found myself testing out a natural insect repellent’s ability to immobilize the flies swarming around me. The pump action spray nozzle does nothing more than wet their wings, leaving me to deliver the final blow. I put up a brave fight, but it was a never ending battle and I forced myself to ignore the critters.
So eventually we had movement and I thought for sure they would be hunting. This was not to be, they moved a hundred meters or so to a nearby pan and took another nap. They also seem to be in grooming mode, doing a lot of ear cleaning and Jiggy is showing a lot of affection towards Puzzles.
Just before I was sure they were staying there for the day they humored me with a nice fresh dip in the pan, followed by some sporting play. Well, they saved me from some hard negotiating of the Mopane trees and I was happy to spend the time chilling in the bush. The afternoon was a different story, they really put my off-road driving abilities to the test, but it seems like they went to sleep hungry.
Well, even dogs like to sleep in occasionally. What time do they usually wake up.
It’s nice to see them all playing in the water, instead of being afraid of it!
Deet my friend, will keep the bugs away. Cant find it holler at me and I will send you some. Question, do the dogs know that in a small pan they dont have to worry about crocks, or dont they worry in general?
thank you very macht
