There’s nothing like mom’s lap, no matter who you are.
This is the newborn offspring of Taskin, a Gypsy Stallion owned by Villa Vanners of Oregon. These photos were taken immediately after his birth on April 6. The mare lay down, and he trotted right over and crawled into her lap. Talk about true love!

She was found on highway 58 near Oakridge, OR over 14 years ago “when she was hardly big enough to eat.” Little Lucy was rescued by Dan Pittman, who brought her right on in to his sewing machine shop in Eugene.
Just two weeks after her rescue, the shop was broken into twice, the door left wide open. Lucy didn’t leave, and she was clearly there to stay as resident “shopkeep.” Her shop, Springfield Vacuum & Sewing Shop, moved two years later to Springfield where she has been ever since, a sweet vision in the window or snuggled among the rows of new to antique sewing machines and vacuums. She is a beautiful Calico who loves to observe the hustle and bustle in her shop, occasionally even strolling into the parking lot for a bit when Dan opens in the morning. She quickly returns to her lofty post, however, keeping a watchful eye on the shop and her visiting friends. Spot celebrates Dan and Lucy, and to her we say: Job well done, Lucy!
Saturday, May 1, 2010 at 1:01 AM From the Editor: Todd Johnson contacted us after seeing Bradley Larios and his girl, Tiger Lily, on the cover of the April ’10 issue. Todd was curious about Tiger Lily’s breed, as she looks similar to his beloved boy, Bogart. He wrote:
Dear Spot,
I recently picked up the April copy of SPOT Magazine at Sellwood Dog Supply. The dog on the cover, Tiger Lily, looks AMAZINGLY like my dog Bogart. We rescued Bogey from the Scappoose “Terrier Rescue” back in July 2009. The breed mix is a guess; Shar-pei/Chow with Shepherd/Mastiff (maybe). He looks so much like Bradley’s dog Tiger Lily, I was wondering if you know the breed (or mix) of your April cover model?
After letting Todd know that Tiger Lily was a Cane Corso, he looked up the breed, and wrote back:
After looking up Cane Corsos, we’re convinced that our Bogart is a mix of Cane Corso and Shar-Pei or Chow.
We do plan to have a DNA test done, as we get questioned about Bogey’s “mix of breeds” every time we go to the park; for a walk; lot’s of comments.
Thanks for your reply and for the website referrals. I think you do a great service and obviously love your job!
Thanks,
Todd Johnson, Portland
