Squirrels are Pongo's sworn enemies, so he was delighted to find a large population in the neighborhood where my parents' live.  Not a walk went by during daylight hours where he didn't try to give chase.  My arm is sore from all the yanking on the leash.

I think they are cute.  Pongo assures me that they are little critters with the worst of intentions.
