Sherlock (left) and Watson (right) are two pampered Scottish Terriers who will soon be leaving Capitol Hill for a new life in Amsterdam. Sherlock, 10, and Watson, 5, are friends of Sean (in the blue) and Joe (in the cammo). Sherlock is an Emerald City Pet rescue, is deaf, and has a great life. Watson, has been in the neighborhood since puppyhood and is a bit of a “Capitol Hill celebrity,” we’re told. He is known for his visits to Mud Bay and being a dog about town. Owners Sean and Joe will be taking the Queen Mary II with their pups to Amsterdam for a fresh start so say goodbye when you see them around the Hill.

We ask photographer Alex Garland to follow marchers in the rain and do crazy things like trying to make yet another picture of yet another huge apartment building look interesting. We thought we’d ask him to do something a little more fun. Capitol Hill Pets is a semi-regular look at our furry, fuzzy, feathered, and finned friends found out and about on Capitol Hill. Are you a Capitol Hill Pet we should know about? Drop us a line.
