PitBull and Texas BlueBonnets! Protecting WildFlowers! ;) HD

Happy Spring to Everyone! My pitbull Sharky protecting his Texas BlueBonnets in his yard!!

The bluebonnet, a name common to several North American species of Lupinus, is the state flower of Texas. They typically grow about 0.3 m (1 ft) tall. The name is possibly derived from the shape of the petals of the flower and their resemblance to the bonnets worn by pioneer women to shield themselves from the sun.

Texas A&M University researchers were successful in breeding red and white strains, creating a Texas state flag in bluebonnets for the 1986 Texas Sesquicentennial.

On March 7, 1901, Lupinus subcarnosus (also known as Buffalo clover) became the only species of bluebonnet recognized as the state flower of Texas. However, Lupinus texensis (Texas bluebonnet) emerged as the favorite of most Texans. The flowers’ deep blue blossoms can be seen from March through May in many areas of Texas. As a result of this popularity, in 1971 the Texas Legislature made any species of bluebonnet the state flower.

My son’s pit would lay right in the middle of that flower bed. I have seen him do it many times and when I get after him he appears dumbfounded as to what he might have done wrong. He’s just a big muscle bound baby.

Your doggie looks like a Big-O baby! The next scene is Girly Girl rolling around in the flowers, crushing them while she exposes her belly for some rubbing! Ha! I’m just kidding, but if it happened, you’d laugh about the loss and love her anyway . . . Right!
