Beezy at Tensing Pen took my chair

When we were there two weeks ago, there was a wedding party that rented the majority of the resort. The brides side of the family were Jamaicans (as a side note, the sisters of the bride all looked like runway models, totally unrelated to my story, but made the scenery at the resort just that much better), and most of them were scared of the dogs. Earlier in the week, one if the owners was there, and the three dogs typically follow her everywhere and have run of the resort. After she left though, on the day of the wedding, they locked all three of the dogs up, because they were barking at the guests.

We were sitting in the hammock hut, and when anyone walked by, they would start in growling and barking... Not the best thing for a wedding to have three 100+ pound dogs barking at the guests. So, they got taken up to the managers apartment which is above the office. I have never seen such a pitiful look as those three trying to convince me to let them out from the roof of the office every time I walked by that day. Before they locked them up, they came and took them out of our living room, and sugar tried to go hide in the hall between the bedrooms. They are the fiercest looking wuss dogs I have ever met :). Sugar is the biggest of the three, and to see her trying to hide was comical. On the first night they got locked up, the managed to break the gate down, tensing slipped his collar, and when I got up in the morning, all three were sleeping in my living room.

Honestly, those dogs were one of the highlights of my trip.

I love that first picture, it just screams "So what are you going to do about it??". Beautiful dogs! Might have to stay at TP on trip just to meet them :)

Timm,

Did you have dinner at LTU tonight? :)

Have a great trip!

Hi VVHT, have not made it to LTU yet. Tried several nights but seems like someone always wants to go here do that and so on. Lots of couples we know here this year so has been a juggling act but have had great time so far. It never works out like what you plan in Jamaica.

We love our extended family of returning guest here at TP. Had a family style thanksgiving dinner last night. We had 14 of us at one big long table !!!

here's a painting i did a couple of years ago sitting in front of the office at tensing pen. it's called "let sleeping dogs lie" and if you look closely you can see tensing curled up under the table

Nice painting Elsie !

my husband and i spent many weeks at tensing pen through the years. there have been many dogs that i saw come and then pass. one of my favorites was oscar, who was the big daddy alpha male. tensing was the first ridgeback to arrive and threaten his territory, and then suga. i have never met beezy, but i look forward to meeting yet another wonderful dog at the beautiful special tensing pen.
here's a drawing from one of my stays.
