Dog Man

We met this man while out walking.  We have a special route planned out so that we can miss a the majority of the traffic.  It includes hills and steps.  It is quite a work out at 9500 ft.
This guy worked in Canada and the US for close to 40 years.  His English isn't that great but he likes to practice.
He returned to Ecuador and found these stray dogs that he adopted!
Almost every morning we meet him out walking his dogs.  (He even seems to be pretty good about picking up the dog messes.  UGH!!
The problem is most dog owners don't clean up after their dogs so we have to be really careful where we put our feet.
It's not a real fun walk because we have to dodge cars and dog droppings.

His family consists of 6 adopted stray dogs!! He includes himself as the 7th.
