Tanya, or General Disarray

Tanya has a knack for making canine enemies everywhere she goes. In the last few days, no less than three dogs have tried to kick her ass. She was pinned by a Jack Russell Terrier who was not just "feisty," as one adoring man commented, but bloodthirsty. The dog who lives in front of us knocked down two of the wooden fence boards yesterday. I believe his most enduring wish is to free himself from the crappy backyard in which he lives and go pawtiteeth with her.

There's something about Tanya that makes big dogs want to spend a lot of time torturing her. She reminds me of one of the characters on the great show, Freaks and Geeks, possibly Neal. She's cute, sort of sharp, and totally unable to defend herself against the blows of others.
