The May Mutt Of The Month






I took the photograph on the left of the May Mutt of the Month on the rocky outcropping next to the House of Refuge in Stuart, Florida, the only remaining life-saving station of 12 that lined Florida's Atlantic coast. It was operated by the United States Life-Saving Service, a predecessor of the U.S. Coast Guard, and built in 1876, the oldest building in Martin County. It is now a museum. And the location is really spectacular, especially when waves are crashing against the rocks. However, as far as I can tell, neither that dog nor its owner is impressed with the scenery. The owner seems far more interested in his smartphone than anything else - surprise! - while the dog is just happy to pose for a photo before they move on down the beach. For which I am grateful. Thanks, guy!
