Pounce

[Hillscreek]

It's something new everyday for eight month old Angus.

The grasses and weeds etc on the sides of an old trail we walk have grown long. No doubt field mice and voles are running about.

I was walking along with Angus on his long line sniffing and wandering around. Then all of a sudden he pounced! And pounced again and a couple of other times as we walked along. He disappeared down into grasses above his head

You know how springy cairns are. Even so I was really surprised how high he bounced. Wow. He did the whole thing very professionally with the paws together, necked arched, ears pointed forward.

A picture! Wish I'd had my camera with me.

Ah yes .. The fox movement:) I get the pouncing thing with Jock when I throw snowballs into snow drifts. It always make me laugh ...it's like watching a dog on a pogo stick!

Ellie leaps through the yard and leaps at who knows what, (bugs I assume). DH says she looks like a leaping deer!

The pounce is fun. I love to watch it and they love to do it. All their muscles are in tune with "the pounce".

You just described a perfect picture of the "pounce" and I can visualize Angus hunting for his prey. Lucky for you he didn't come up with a surprise in his mouth
