My Calendar Boy

Isn't Mr. September handsome? That's my boy! (And my photo, too!)

My copies of the 2010 BARC (Bernese Auction Rescue Coalition) calendar showed up in the mail this week. Very excited!

Thor is my BARC rescue. I took this photo back in 2007, and submitted it to the BARC calendar in September, when they were putting it together. It's BARC's first calendar, with all funds over expenses going to rescue Bernese Mountain Dogs from exploitative situations. (Click here to make the back of the calendar large enough to read the explanation about BARC.)

This photo of Thor is my all-time favorite of him. It's my second-most "interesting" photo on Flickr, with over 1,000 views.

To learn more about Thor, browse my posts about him, about how he came into our lives, and about some of his misadventures in running away.

Note: When I wrote the first post about Thor being selected for the calendar, I thought he would be Mr. November. Obviously, I was incorrect. The Beacon regrets the error. :)
