Jax had a lot of fun chasing lizards earlier in the day but it got a little hot for her later in the day so I pulled a tarp pout of the truck and made her a shade shelter.

I also have an AZ desert dog.  Loves to chase the rabbits and lizards.  Never ever catches any.  Has been rattle snake trained to avoid.  Ever tried working some AZ copper mines around Globe or Morenci?
Florence, AZ has some Chrysocolla.  Town is a bit on the down low, though.
