We have a wooded area behind our house. A couple of weeks ago, a doe head butted our dog through the fence. I could tell she had recently given birth, but did not see the fawn. She just would not leave. The irony is that near our fence is safer because Donovan's presence deters predators. So it has been a long 2 weeks because we do not let him in the yard unless we are with him. Today he was standing at the fence with his head cocked to one side - not barking - just curious. I walked over to see what it was and lo and behold I see a tiny face looking up at us. Mom has stashed her baby in the cactus stand just outside our fence. You can make out part of the face, if you look right in the middle between the cactus pads. I just noticed that another face is visible above. I imagine it is a combination of leaves and light, but it does look like a boxer - maybe a guardian angel dog.
