I saw this dog while gathering sticks at the Albany Bulb for the latest crafts project that I’m planning for my students. The animal’s name is Beckett and the breed is Irish Wolfhound. I’m pretty certain this dog was bigger than its owner.

For such a big dog, Beckett was surprisingly mellow – a gentle giant.

It’s snowing again as I type this but during a recent spring-like break in the weather, I asked Patricia to throw the sweaters on her two dogs so I could play around with video. Max is the dachsund and Minnie is the Schnauzer and both sweaters were handmade by Patricia herself. Do you enjoy watching video? Thoughts?
