Dog on the Rocks

On the Rocks


By Catherine Heym

Mila, the cute shar-pei-french bulldog, takes you along on her daily walk and talks about the rocks you see along the way. The walk takes place in Point Pleasant Park in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. Most of the rocks seen are the result of deep water turbidite flows and are part of the Bluestone Formation, which is a part of the Halifax group, a subunit of the Meguma Supergroup.
