How are you with names? One night at a church social function I wanted to introduce my wife to this other fellow. I knew his name full well but much to my surprise I had a brain cramp and I could not think of his name for the life of me. I felt so bad and hated to have to ask him his name. It would have been so embarrassing. So I said, “I’ll let you two introduce yourselves—I need to go to the washroom” then I spun around the took off like a shot. I got out of that nice, I thought.
Dogs have the same short-wave (blue) and medium-wave (yellow-green) color receptors as humans and most other mammals have. They lack the long-wave (red) receptor that humans and most other primates have. So, yeah, Louie probably wouldn’t be able to distinguish between green and orange.

The tree should inform its leaves how the seasons work!

More troubling is the fact that dogs are colour-blind…

Louie can see in color?

At least the leaf isn’t going gray.
Man…THAT is traumatic.

Pretty soon Louie will be talking to it on the ground . . . if he can find it among all the other leaves.

Apropos of nothing, Louie. Is it possible your leaf friend’s name is “Freddy”?

Oh my! That’s like telling the leaf it has one foot in the grave.
Good evening, Crew!

Hey Girlfriend!

An old friend is an old friend, I suppose. We can all benefit from a little sprucing up now and then …
’Evening, Crew.
