Mississippi Delta Dogs are an inescapable, loosely cherished constant in our beloved homeland, but they are not the cat’s meow! Cat will get a fella every time! A friend of Poor William’s is fond of saying that you can lead a man off in to the Grand Canyon with one cat hair! Truth!

Magical Madge and I were visiting Quapaw Canoe Company’s John Ruskey with our ferocious shih-poo, Dandy. Quapaw rescue, Shady the cat, loved Dandy, but jus a little! It was Shady’s world; Dandy was just visiting! Please enjoy a short clip of the relations between man’s best friend and the real Delta Dawg—Shady!
