Box turtle vs. King Charles Cavalier Spaniel

District Curmudgeon blogger I.M. Goph tweeted, “did no one else see this wapo story from yesterday?” with a link to this story:

12TH ST., 5000 block, Oct. 1. Animal control received a call about a turtle that was menacing Chihuahuas in a yard. An animal control officer took the eight-inch box turtle closer to a park.

Well thanks to I.M. Goph, we saw it and now so did you. Happy Friday, everyone!
