"Beautiful Deer who Runs Like Rabbit"

While we were in Mexico, folks there seemed to find Faith very interesting...
We ran into lots of people who wanted to pet her, and who couldn't seem to stop staring at her - especially when she was running around.

There was a really cool guy who brought our water to the house we were staying at - He did not speak English and I am very limited in my Spanish, so I don't know his name, but he absolutley loved Faith. He would watch her run and he would point and laugh - he was so happy. Every time she stopped to look at him or took off running he would slap his leg and laugh again.

Her new friend wanted his photo taken with her - I love the way this picture came out. He was so happy to hold her - but was trying to look so serious for the photo. He told all his friends that I took his photo and was going to take it back to the US and sell it there.

After some limited conversation attempts, one of his friends translated for me - he pointed to Faith and called her
"Beautiful Deer who Runs Like Rabbit"
So I guess that is Faith's Mexican name now ...

Another guy who came by was staring very strangly at her thru the glass door to the house as he thought we had a small deer in the house!

The next time we go back I want to take a print of that shot in case we run into him again so I can give him a copy.
