Neighborhood Watchdog

Ever since he was a puppy, Eko has loved sitting by the window.

There is a lot going on in the world and Eko doesn’t want to miss a minute of it!

Even after an adventurous day on the road Eko would unwind by keeping an eye on things outside our window

Thanks to a nice stroke of luck, my apartment in Chicago happens to be on the front of the building so that Eko can watch the world go by.  Eko is such a fixture at the window that a couple of neighbors once asked me about “that dog statue” in my window.  I recently moved a couch over near the window where Eko can now combine his two favorite activities – window watching and sunbathing.

Keeping an eye on the neighborhood

Eko has been known to occasionally fall asleep on the job 

And of course, I know immediately when Eko has spotted something good.  In this case, two of his dog friends out on a walk

It wasn’t until recently that I realized how much of a perk it is to have street-facing windows where Eko can pass the time.  And as if that wasn’t enough, I am also lucky enough to be the proud owner of a one-of-a-kind piece of art.

If you have a dog, you almost certainly own your own custom glass art too!

Is your pet a window aficionado?
