This is Isaac, my friend's dog. He is such a great dog and came from Tulsa GSD rescue.

Stacey, a JB is a Japanese beetle (the metallic looking bug in the pic). They appear in summer in great numbers to destroy flowers. They are especially destructive to roses and all plants in the rose family and many other plants. Anyone who grows and loves flowers, hates JBs.

I love your picture, Karen. Catching the snow falling is so cool!! You live in such a picturesque place. Mine is Fred enjoying the snow. This was a few years ago.

Thanks Nicole and wantoretire. thanks for jogging my memory. I am familiar with this 'piller . I had looked it up a few years back and remembered his bad side, and warned my Dh not to touch it. Just couldn't come up with the name at the time I posted.
