Dog day

A dog trainer giving positive reinforcement!

Yesterday,  Shabbat, many Meitar dog-owners came to the new dog training and exercise place.
I showed how it was being built by volunteers a few months ago, in honor of their beloved veterinarian who died.

Long at the long hair!
The red Irish Setter's tail hair even needs to be braided! 

Dr. Doron Avishai's widow (on the right) was enjoying how the place was making everyone happy, both dogs and humans.

Tribute to a vet, training promenade for dogs

.

Camera-Critter folks, look what citizen volunteers of Meitar started building a few months ago!
A nice shiny drinking bowl too. 

Complete with rebar bracing up on top!

When finished (maybe it is already) this will be a dog-training and dog-exercise promenade in memory of a beloved local veterinarian, Dr. Doron Avishai (1953-2013).
Click 2x to enlarge and to better see his photo on the sign. 

I remember from my volunteer years at Heifer Ranch how much work goes into digging post holes, mixing concrete, and setting posts straight.
It has to be a labor of love.

All these are right across the path from Meitar's new fenced-in dog park I showed you last week.

Looks like the dogs are going to have fun.

Nice detail work on the balance beams-cum-benches.

Rest in peace, Dr. Doron Avishai, knowing your memory lives on.

UPDATE:  The place was soon completed and a Dog Day was held, to the delight of Dr. Avishai's widow.

Sidecar and all

You're right, it's not a Hog; it is a BSA.
So how does it qualify as an animal for admission to our friendly weekend Camera-Critters meme?

The sign reads "Veterinary ambulance. House calls. Dr. Ariel S..."

The license is for a "collectors' vehicle."
 The rucksack looks as old as the motorcycle.

I like this. I would call this doctor, if I had a pet, and if I lived in Tel Aviv.
