Dogs and Porcupines

Jess has two pets. One is a dog named Show Ming. She is a happy dog that likes to go on long walks and has joined me on my morning walks around the lake. Lenny the white porcupine is named for South Dakota Lenny and escaped from his pen our first night here. He hid under the piano for most of the day until near evening he decided to search for food. Last night he was quite active in his cage as I think he was doing his part to prepare for today's party.

There are a lot of dogs in Taiwan both strays and pets and as there seems to be no leash law in effect here, it's hard to tell who's who sometimes. I've seen many people with their dogs in stores and restaurants and also riding on scooters!
