Dekka in the wetlab at Trent U. She says daphnia are sooo boring. There is a study going on with Japanese quail across the hall. Dekka would very much like to help them research flight behaviour in the quail .Wandering around school with my dog was funny. I have no classes on Thursdays, but work, so its a perfect day to bring the little dog with me. I went to go pick up my travel mug I had forgot in the biology dept office. Dekka is a very small dog, and the hall was pretty crowded with students waiting to get into the teaching labs. There were so many exclamations about wow look a dog! oh hey a dog etc. I would think the surprising thing is that there is a dog trotting down the biology wing, not that she is a dog. Dekka has been a dog for 5 years now so its not a new thing.
I do love that she is very well behaved and can just chill whilst I centrefuge things, wash things, count neonatal daphnia etc. It makes work all the more pleasant when you can take a friend.
