He came home with us on New Year's eve, Dec.31 2003. Life was a lot different then. Less dogs, more cats, we had furniture and we wore shoes. Miles seemed impossibly small and fragile to us at first. We know better now.

He has a deep and unrelenting hatred of motorized vehicles. Nothing can dissuade him from barking at them. What could we do but move far from traffic?

it's hard to get a shot of him, he's low and fast:
