DFO’s Critters: Back Seat Driver

Topaz enjoys the breeze in the back seat of Susan Boone�s car Thursday Sept. 29, 2011 as the pair drive back to Kennewick, Wash. after dropping Boone�s daughter off at Columbia Basin College. Boone said the goggles her rescue dog wears were originally intended to protect the animals eyes from cataracts but have proved useful keeping the wind out of his eyes during open window driving.
