A highlight of my recent trip
to LA was spending time with
Bodie, Stephen F. Fiske's Houndog.
Stephen is quite the story teller.
Bodie's momma is a an all white part wolf.
His poppa is a houndog that lived across the way
for a New Age sophisticate who ran a Growth Center
in the South.
She, the the Growth Center owner, was wanted to
have her dog mated with a high cultured white dog
of a rare breed, so she had her locked up for three days
and presumed the pups would come form that litter.
She was convinced that the dad was this High Breed
white dog.
Stephen fell in love with the pup and took her home,
even though the dog did not turn out white.
About three months later, he went to visit again.
She was still convinced the dad was this pure bred.
She had advertised the pubs parents and sold
the pups based on this adverisement.
This dog was from a very high pedigree,
there was no, ands, if's, or butts.
One day Stephen went back there to perform again.
he was sitting on the porch of the Growth Center.
From across the field, Stephen saw this Hound dog approach.
He was not the friendliest dog, but he definitely owned the
neighborhood.
Stepehn, in his inimical style, gazed at the hound dog.
He could see a similar walk and look between his pup
and that dog.
He put two and two together, and was convinced that
the real pop of his dog Bodie was that Hounddog.
She insisted the pubs were sired by a pop of high pedigree!
"I advertised!"
"Well, it was false advertising!" Stephen said, with a smile.
She finally conceded. Bodie's dad was that hounddog.
The story was funny the way Stephen told it.
Bodie is a real Mensch.
My inner child liked him very much.
I enjoyed Stephen's hospitality for two days.
One of the highlights was getting to know Bodie.
I so enjoyed watching the love the two of the shared--
Stephen and Bodie.
Bodie is short for Bohdisatva...he has been celebate al
these years. Bodie is about ten years old in human time.
Stephen would like a mate for his dog so he can have a pup.
