January 21st is Squirrel Appreciation Day! Now not many people appreciate squirrels, but I know I like to watch them when they run across our backyard! We seem to have 3-4 squirrels that are out, especially in the morning searching for food, even in the winter. I know that Bob (our Australian Shepherd) LOVES squirrels! He loves to chase them, and I have never seen him move so quickly as when he chases them. Don't worry squirrel lovers, he's never been close to catching one, but we always tell him he was just inches away!
