There I was… enjoying the peacefulness of my backyard…
It’s not always peaceful… there are doggies barking, squirrels hissing, birds squawking… you get the idea. But today it really was peaceful.
I walked around with my nose up in the air, smelling all the wonderful, flowery smells. Maybe there was mango smell in there, I’m not sure, since I’ve never smelled a mango before.
Anyway, I found a nice spot to lounge on the deck, and I continued to enjoy the beautiful weather. It wasn’t too hot, and it wasn’t too cold.
It was juuuust right. π
All of a sudden, I spotted something out of the corner of my eye. I moved my head a little to the right, and eyed just in front of my turtle pool.
Something moved. It was brownish in color, had a long tail, and was very fast!
I watched it scurry across the deck. I ran after it to see if I could catch it!
It’s too bad daddy hasn’t finished redoing the deck yet — I’d be able to climb up the stairs and have a better view. Well, that’s what I’d like to do. Mommy wouldn’t let me go up on the deck alone, anyway.
Since I couldn’t go up on top of the deck, I jumped up on the side to see if I could see underneath the deck. Hmmm… I can’t see anything from this side.
Can you see it? There it is!
Here’s a closer look! Can you see it now?
I jumped up on the other side of the deck, and saw it.
Monster Lizard!
This lizard was the BIGGEST lizard I’ve ever seen! I usually see the tiny lizards — so many of them live underneath the deck. I’ve actually caught a few of those. Heh, heh. But this one… this one was a monster!
Isn’t he precious? NOT!
Mommy says she’s seen this lizard a lot. I would love to chase this boy (or girl) lizard, but he just doesn’t come out often. He’s really good at hiding.
I’ll have to keep my eyes open for the monster. Maybe one day I’ll see him and give him a good chase. π
Woofs & hugs,

You are handsome Bailey ! – I don’t know if I would have like this lizard… oh you can’t find them where I live, at least not those big ones !
ps : me and my humans love your ears !
Hi Lincoln!! You would have liked this lizard… all doggies like chasing lizards. π
Awww, I love your ears too!! They’re floppy just like mine! π

Ahhh…lizards! I know they eat bugs, which is a good thing, but they weird me out! Gus LOVES to chase them on our patio. π
I’ve heard they eat bugs, but they must not be doing such a good job… ’cause there are still lots of bugs around!

I think this is a really big Anole. I remember these from when we lived in Miami. They’re pretty cool critters! They eat bugs and anything that eats bugs is alright in my book π
Bailey – I LOVE your ears. They are so adorable, they make me smile whenever I see them!
Anole… hmmm. I told my mommy about this, and she said she’s never heard the word, Anole! She’s always called them lizards. π But you’re right — anything that eats bugs is A-OK!
I wonder though… how come the snakes haven’t gotten these monster lizards yet? I’ve seen a couple of snakes in our backyard — they’ve made me jump so high! I guess the lizards are pretty smart!
Woofs & hugs,

Oh, boy! Pumpkin and Darby would sure be happy to help you chase that monster lizard. We have lots of lizards in our backyard. Every now and then I find a lizard tail — just the tail — which almost always means the lizard itself got away by detaching its tail! Weird, huh? Can you imagine how confused Darby and Pumpkin must be when that happens? Tail in the mouth or under the foot, but lizard STILL running away.
wooooos Bailey! That’s the biggest lizard I’ve ever seen, well actually I’ve never seen a lizard but they look like they might be fun to chase, bet the little buggers are fast eh? what do they taste like??!!

They sure are fast! But I’ve managed to catch a couple. Mommy makes me let them go, if I do catch them. But this one time, my non-furry sister told my mommy that I must have eaten a lizard. Later that day, I was a little sick, so I guess I did. I guess they aren’t that good for doggies!
oh wow! that is a monster
