Friday Hound Blogging

Well, there is the expansion of racing into Juarez Mexico. (Yes, that Juarez). That's right. The country that hemorrhages hundreds of thousands of immigrants both legal and illegal seeking a better life is the next growth target for the racing industry.

With sharp insight and sterling business acumen like that, it's a good thing this week's hound is retired. Meet D's Zola's Best:

Zola is friendly, playful (at times), and very loving and affectionate. He likes to stay near you in the house and will bury his head into your body or hand for attention. He has learned to play with stuffed toys. He is a happy boy and he wags his tail a lot. He is confident, intelligent, sweet, and obedient. He wags his tail straight up and down when he is happy. He is learning to play with other dogs and enjoys their company. He “talks” with his teeth and will move his mouth as if he is trying to communicate with his family. His foster mom calls him Ferdinand once in awhile because he is so big but wimpy. The little dog next door sent him up onto the deck with his tail between his legs when it started yapping!
