No Post Today
“Why not?” says Spence.
“Why not?” Admin says. “How about on account of this new computer set-up I’m installing? Have you seen these stupid diagrams, obviously designed to be understood by travelers from another galaxy? After that, if there is an after that, we’re hitting the road.”
“Sorry I asked.”

Gooood morning, everyone! Poor Admin. No one really speaks computer-ese 🙁
We are up because mom is up, but she isn’t awake after being up most of the night waiting for the Daddy Dawg to land.
Have a tangy Thursday )

Good morning HOH and all. Rio will not be happy about the No Post today. Grump!
Did our green beans yesterday, and will try to get some tomatoes done today.
Got a nice rain over night, which was really needed. Yea!

Greetings!
BooBear, I am sorry I misunderstood about Gus.
Gus, hang tough, big guy. You can do this, I know you can!!
RIO! I just felt like saying that.
Belle Starr, Sparkle shopping is on the books. Have you checked your two-legged? With her new pixie haircut, she may be hoarding sprinkles….
Ruff Rider Teddy, I can not wait to hear your Teddy voice! It will be alot of fun to talk to you on theis here blog!!!
CHobbit, I haxe extra Trazadone if needed.
HRH B, I think you will like today’s Google Doodle. Would love for you to give some history.
9:46 am on August 22nd, 2013
Rose soooo gooood to hear from you:) Glad you are ok.
B&M: You are so ambitious with green beans and tomatoes. Neighbor gives mom veggies from her sis’s garden. We did pickled jalapeños last week. That makes #2 son and Old Fart happy.
Taking adopted son and his partner out to lunch for: 1)son’s b-day 2) their 7th anniversary and 3) S-I-L’s b-day. Mom is going to do a serious NAP before then.
9:48 am on August 22nd, 2013
Good (hot, humid, sultry) morning from day 3 of the Really Long Show. We probably won’t be in touch much today. They are selling wifi here, and if you don’t buy, their jammers make Internet access very iffy.
Supposed to rain later which is supposed to bring cool dry air for the weekend. Here’s hoping!
Rose, glad you are back
Teddy – there is nothing cuter than puppy woofs, so let us hear from you
Melanie – got peaches? tee hee
HOH – while Daddy Dawg is away, will the Herd play?
Have a grand day all.
9:48 am on August 22nd, 2013
Technology and tantrums go together.
Good morning all.
9:50 am on August 22nd, 2013
HRH B: You are a wise woman!

Happy 151 birthday Debussy. Clair de lune is one of my favorite pieces. I went to a Garrick Olsen solo concert in Ann Arbor once and after he was finished playing the audience clapped for more. He played Clair de lune and the audience spontaneously sighed. (Thank you Rose.) The Wikipedia article is very thorough and near the bottom there are samples of his music.

Darn! Someone already did the Google Doodle. Thank you. And thanks, B.Stover. Great link.
After the marathon peach day yesterday, my back has decided that it has had enough! I am resting my back, and trying to remember to keep my shoulders level. Two years on a cane? Weird back issues.
Peach Cobbler is delicious. Blur on over for fresh peaches and a taste of Cobbler.
10:43 am on August 22nd, 2013
Here’s a youtube link to Clair de Lune . .

Rose, in honor of your link yesterday, here is another one!
The comet that does that run into the sun didn’t cause Rose’s sun flare, but it sure looks like it.

10:51 am on August 22nd, 2013
Morn’n and a quick hi while I have the wifi.
Admin: My advice is to ask an eight year old.
10:51 am on August 22nd, 2013
Admin. Drag a 16 year old off the street to help with the computer. It does not embarrass my mom when she needs to do this.
Macy, Good news you posted last night.
C.Hobbit, Let us know how Sadie does on the new drug. We have friends in Colorado that have the same car isues with their dog, but we know drugs work differently on each individual.
Good Morning All
10:52 am on August 22nd, 2013
“An” 8 year old? Gah.
10:55 am on August 22nd, 2013
Found a “mini” apple store in the TN valley. It just frosts mom’s cake to
have to admit dee feet!
11:14 am on August 22nd, 2013
Here is a shot of the morning pic. Now for the messy part.

Barb: Beautiful!
11:47 am on August 22nd, 2013
I woke up to Tenzing in bad shape. I’m calling the vet now, but please offer prayers for my best bud. My hope beyond hope is that this just looks worse than it is—I will explain more later.
11:53 am on August 22nd, 2013
Oh, no! We will be sending healing thoughts your way, Tenzing.
11:55 am on August 22nd, 2013
Prayers for Tenzing! Text me if you want me to stop by on the way to Anchorage to help with anything. I should be passing through between 4-5 pm.
11:59 am on August 22nd, 2013
Melanie: The video of Clair de lune is beautiful. Thank you.
12:07 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Rebecca, Heartfelt prayers from us for Tenzing.
12:14 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Sending good thoughts, and Westchester strong prayers to Tenzing.
12:37 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Rebecca — extra special thoughts and prayers for Tensing and hugs for you.
Interesting article on the internet about the White House coming out against dog breed bans. I see the pawwork of Bo and his new friend at play here.

Transferring Terrific Tenzing Trayers . . NOW!
Wöökie’s Dad. Interesting . . Newfoundlands have been on some of the banned lists. Drives us nuts. Some seem to be written by The Nation Within’s haters.
I believe that even Corgis are on a list somewhere.
1:08 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Siberian Huskies have appeared on those banned lists.
Wookie’s Dad, Thanks for the link to the article.
1:39 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Perhaps we could have a list of banned owners?
2:11 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Status update on Teddy RR. Just had another vet visit this morning for round two of his vaccinations. The vet was very pleased with his progress and overall health. He did accidentally get nipped on the upper nose by another dog a couple of days ago, but it is healing nicely and no apparent ill effects. And he now weighs in at 25 pounds, and seems to be growing daily. Won’t be known as Little Teddy much longer. Will hopefully have more pictures to post in the near future.
2:14 pm on August 22nd, 2013
According to the article, the bully breeds are most often the ones banned. We knew about pits, but Bull Terriers? Really? And why would anyone ban a Newfie, a gentle giant?
2:41 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Tenzing, hang in there, guy! Saying purrs and prayers for you.
BooBear (and Gus)
2:53 pm on August 22nd, 2013
I was out in the garden releasing a monarch this morning and saw I have to get in there and pick tomatoes too. Some had big peck holes in them. I really did not want to feed the birds my tomatoes. They are having enough fun with the Sugar Snap Peas.
Maybe I will do that after lunch.
here is a picture for Amalia and Leonard
Gus and Tenzing. Love you. Keeping you in my thoughts today.
3:03 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Update on Tenzing: I woke up this moring to a puddle of blood on the bedroom floor. I found Tenzing downstairs covered in blood. The first floor of our house looked like a crime scene with blood throughout on the floor, walls, doors and couches. Upon further inspection, the blood appeard to be coming from Tenz’s mouth. Before I took him to the vet I tried to clean him up a bit; he went from a white dog covered in so much blood parts of him looked black to mostly pink. The vet wants to run diagnostic tests on him including blood work, clotting tests and testing his liver. The vet thinks this is part of his condition and not a separate issue aggravated by his condition. I should be able to pick Tenz up this evening. Thanks for the prayers.
3:11 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Mr. Tenzing!…Oh my dawg! I hope you will be alright pal…sniff!…How terrifying for Rebecca….sob!sob!sob!
3:11 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Rebecca, We are keeping Tenzing in our prayers and thoughts.
Gus, little guy, the same goes for you.
You are both part of our family here on the blog.
3:20 pm on August 22nd, 2013
SiberH!…While you have your paws on the computer keyboard go take a gander at your SDD…snort!
3:21 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Gus and Tenzing, thinking of you guys here at River Bear.
To their families and their buddies . . Relax your bodies. Feel a golden light that is being poured over you . . relaxing each muscle. Know that this relaxes your soul. When your soul is relaxed, your loved ones will easily feel the unconditional love you have for them.
3:30 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Rio, I found it. I replied.
3:59 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Bella and Karen – what Melanie said. Prayers coming at you from here. The storyteller is plotting a way to be at the top of the Ferris wheel at 9 tonight to send prayers from on high.
4:00 pm on August 22nd, 2013
And Staff – thanks for the flutterby
4:02 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Smoochers: I think it is time to huddle under the quilt and care for all those we find there. There are others like my mama—she is refusing to let her emotions get the better of her and has poured herself into cleaning and scrubbing—who have not found their way to the quilt, yet. Drag them there if you must. There are so many that need nuzzles and head bumps right now. Macy, if you can spare some dainty licks, it’d be appreciated.
My mama keeps staring at her cell phone waiting for the vet to call. The phone will not ring no matter how much she stairs at it.
4:12 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Luna!…Give me her phone number and I will call her on my little Go-Phone…snort!
4:14 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Rio: It would bring a smile to her face to hear from you. I can just see it now—her answering and you snorting and wheezing on the other end.
4:22 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Luna!…Have her check her SDD for any misspellings…or what not…grunt!sneeze!
4:31 pm on August 22nd, 2013
We are hoping to hear some good news soon. We are thinking of you guys.
4:31 pm on August 22nd, 2013
A humorous video for you’all. Hope it makes you laugh as much as it does me.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/alicejohnson/9572464936/
Thanks for the reminder to relax Melanie. I know I needed it.
4:32 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Rio: Checked and responded.
5:01 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Staff, Some Monarch questions. Will the ones you released travel all the way to Mexico or South America? How long do they live? Do they eat? After you said that their faces fell off we were wondering about eating. Do they eat pollen? I know the caterpillars just eat milkweed leaves, but not sure what the adult does. Will they come back north to lay their eggs next spring? BTW, we loved your video. Your garden is beautiful.
5:22 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Will the ones you released travel all the way to Mexico or South America?
Maybe, see below…
How long do they live?
How long they live depends on whether they are the ones who go to Mexico. If not they mate, lay eggs, and die. If they are the last hatch they will travel to Mexico, hibernate till Spring and then return to the southern US. There they will mate and die. Their offspring will hatch, fly further North, mate, lay eggs and die. Their offspring will hatch, fly further North, mate, lay eggs and die. Up here in North Dakota and Manitoba we usually get the 3rd or 4th hatch depending on the weather. Usually we have two or three hatches once they get up here. It allows them to build up numbers. This year we will only have this one hatch and it is very slight
Do they eat?
The monarch butterflies eat nectar from flowers. The caterpillars eat milkweed leaves. The chrysalises just change. No eating.
Will they come back north to lay their eggs next spring?
If this is the batch that goes South they will come up to Texas and lay their eggs and die.
I learned most of my Monarch info at Journey South http://www.learner.org/jnorth/monarch/
You can also go to the monarchwatch.org website.
Boy I hope I got all my tags right. Rio will roast me if I didn’t.
5:39 pm on August 22nd, 2013
That was all very interesting. One more question, if you don’t mind. Why only one hatch in your area this year?
6:13 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Do you remember the bad storms and rainy/snowy cold weather this last spring?
They happened just as the monarchs and many birds were migrating. They killed off many of the monarchs who were already week from hibernating all winter. It stalled the migration and we didn’t get any monarchs until 6 weeks later than normal.
It also delayed the milkweed growth so that those monarchs who did live couldn’t find milkweed to lay their eggs on.
I usually get monarchs by the 15th of June and have milkweed a week before. I didn’t see a single monarch until the 20th of July. I gathered my first eggs on the 26th of July. 5 to 6 weeks late.
A single generation can take as short a time as 3 weeks. You can see that we lost 2 generations right there.
Here is one article about it.

6:23 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Staff, I remind myself everyday.
Having caught up with “New Tricks” and having to wait for the next season to start, I was looking through Amazzzzzooo Prime and found a BBC series from 1999. “Heat of the Sun” is excellent. We will be watching the rest of the episodes. Now I have to find out how many seasons there were.
Takes place in Nairobi after WWI. Police story with plenty of twists and some humor.
7:13 pm on August 22nd, 2013
I was neatening up in the spare bedroom and looked over at the Calvin and Hobbs pile and the top one is called Yukon Ho. I never really thought about it before. Now it seems very important.

Just got back home from taking son and s-i-l to lunch and whuping them @ scrabble. So much happening today! Rebecca, you and Tenzing are in our pawrayers, understand the CSI look . We are still finding blood from 2005 :(, and we washed for a week. Gus is in our thoughts too. Love the great peach reach w/ Melanie and the monarch masterpiece w/ Staff.
7:33 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Thanks, Melanie for the link!
Thanks to HRH B for the very interesting information about today’s Google Doodle.
Westchester strong prayers going out to Tenzing, and love and hugs to you Rebecca.
7:45 pm on August 22nd, 2013
RIO! Please run like a little pug and check your SDD when able.
7:46 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Staff, That was a good article, but also sort of scary. The Monarch decline reminds us of the bee problem. People around here are saying that they haven’t seen hardly any honey bees all summer. Is this a sign of a bigger problem with the enivronment? We are afraid it is, but hope it is not a harbinger of doom.
7:48 pm on August 22nd, 2013
HOH, Got to teach them youn’uns a thing or two! ( I would not be able to do that with Scrabble. I sit there with my 3 letter words and people run right over me.)
Staff, that link brings back memories. OTAS had (and still has) all of this C&H books.
He would actually read them to YSAS. Amazing.
Anyhoo, about two years ago, I got him the bound edition. Dog, did that make a hit.
7:49 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Barb&MagPie, what we’ve had trouble with here is the dying of Brown Bats.
Not a good thing.
7:50 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Hmmm, hope their decline has nothing to do with Dawson . . Pondering
7:55 pm on August 22nd, 2013
No bat decline with Dawson, she invited them in!
8:12 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Every morning Mommy reads the daily Calvin and Hobbes cartoon to me. Reruns, of course.

Day!…What a day it has been!…snort!…I am on pins and needles waiting to hear about Mr.Tenzing…sniffle!…I have worrit about him all afternoon long. My friend had a big day too but she is not saying much tonight…sneeze!…She says she is playing the “waiting game”…grunt!
8:21 pm on August 22nd, 2013
RIO! SDD waiting for you. I’m going to bed in 10 minutes. run like a little pug.
8:30 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Rose!…pant!pant!pant!…I ran as fast as I could and checked it…wheeze!
8:34 pm on August 22nd, 2013
RIO! Thank you.
8:40 pm on August 22nd, 2013
RIO! Responded. Can wait until tomorrow. I am going to bed now.
Sleep tight all!
Praying for all those who are under the quilt.
8:50 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Rose!…Goodnight!…snort!…My friend is so tired tonight we will probably be hitting the beds sooner than usual…wuffle!
8:53 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Waiting to hear about Tenzing. Hope all is OK.
Night, Rose.
9:05 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Mr.Tenzing….sniffle!….We here are waiting to hear about that big guy too. Hoping Rebecca is doing okay and scrubbing bubbles…snorkel!
9:06 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Night, Rose. Pawrayers for Gus and Tenzing especially. Mom says thinking in multiple time zones is tiring. We can’t figure that out.
9:27 pm on August 22nd, 2013
HOH, time zones are weird. As far as I am concerned it is always now.
The front that is coming through is hurting my joints. Going to bed.
I hope the storyteller was able to get to the top of the ferris wheel. I am thinking of everyone who has a heavy heart for what ever reason.
I will be thinking of Tenzing and Gus as I go to sleep.
TTFN
9:41 pm on August 22nd, 2013
StoryTeller!…At the top of the Ferris Wheel. That is a very riveting image…snort!…I know someone who is terrified of the ferris wheel…heh!heh!…Never been on one and never intend to start anytime soon…chorkle!
Thoughts!…I am thinking of my pals Rebecca and The Giant and Bellie, and Lefty and Pancho and Mother Luna, and Charlie, and of course my most wonderful Junior. I know he is working hard to pull his weight. Thinking of them all tonight and hoping so hard for the best news for the Majestic Mr.Tenzing….wuffle!
9:45 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Praying for all as well as our friend, diagnosed in April and already in the last weeks of hospice. Visualizing Melanie’s golden light pouring over all of us.
Thank you, Staff for butterfly releases. There’s something amazingly hopeful about their migration flights.
Sleep soundly, friends.
9:49 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Staff!…I really loved your video…snort!…Did Alice run the video kamera?…heh!…I bet she did. I really bet she did…snort!…Your garden is amazing compared to my friends motley attemps….chorkel!…I really wish she would take some photos of her green tomaters. Looking at Barb’s tomatoes today made my friend weep…sniff!sneeze!
10:12 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Rio: If you need a good laugh, you should see mom’s son’s ‘mater plant. Potted, cherry ‘mater, 1 stem, 3 feet tall and ONE blossom on it 🙁 It is really sad.
All are in out pawrayers tonight. Nighty night.
10:14 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Going to bed early here also. It was a busy day today. And since Mr.Staff is once again at a Bluegrass Festival I had to do the dishes all by myself. At least I leave the sink clean. He does not feel that cleaning out the sink is part of doing the dishes.
sniff.
I hope Tenzing and Gus are pain free and all who need it find room under the quilt.
I hope the Storyteller had a good ride on the ferris wheel.
And I hope my flutterbys make it safely down to Mexico and back next Spring.
Nighty Noodles and Morning Liz.
10:15 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Oh, And Melanie, I LOVE the boxed set and am very jealous of OTAS.
10:16 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Tomaters!…We were all out there tonight watching her water her two tomatoe plants…snort!…She was hopeful because more tomatoes have appeared but they are all still GREEN…heh!heh!…She says she thinks they will ripen up before we leave on our Sept. trip to Iowa…grunt!…I have my doubts, but my duty is to be the pessimist, especially during the growing season…gruffle!
10:28 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Rio, Baeb does not like ferris wheels either. She remembers being stuck at the top as a teenager, and the person she was riding with was rocking the car back and forth. Still makes her stomach do flip flops!
Hope all those under the quilt are OK.
Off to bed.
10:30 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Barb!…Wait! What do you do with all those ripe tomatoes??…snuffle!sneeze!
10:39 pm on August 22nd, 2013
I’m back home from spending the day at the vet office. They thought about keeping me over night, but in the end let my Lady take me home. I had my Lady lift me into the car not because I’m too weak to do it myself, but because it is a sure fire way to get a hug. She gets covered in me, I get a snuggle. It’s a win-win.
My red cell counts dropped by over 10% in the last month, and I’ve lost 10% of my body weight. We’re wait, wait, waiting for more lab results. Right now, the vet is treating me for a GI ulcer. If I don’t improve in the next couple of days, then the vet suspects liver failure or another long name of something my Lady can’t pronounce. I may have clotting issues or I may not. Right now, we’re playing the waiting game, too just like Rio’s Friend. Yeep!—I hope she doesn’t have liver problems or clotting issues. I’ll share my pills with her if she does. They sent me home with six new medications to add to my other medications. I’ll be dancing with the giraffes for a long while.
My Lady and I want to thank you for all your prayers. I could feel it while I was at the vet. I also think I felt a scritch between the ears from the Storyteller.
Gus and I are snuggled up together. I’m keeping an eye on him and he’s keeping an eye on me. Instead of being his pillow, I have offered to be his mattress. He’s curled on top of me. When I inhale, he exhales and vice versa.
10:45 pm on August 22nd, 2013
OMDAWG!…I am so glad Mr.Tenzing is home….sniffle!…My friend says if one of us had to spend the night at the Vets she would not be very happy or get any sleep at all…wuffle!…I do have strong hope and faith that Mr.Tenzing will pull through this and be his Regal Self very soon….wuffle!
10:46 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Gus!…You are in good Paws with Mr.Tenzing at your side under the Quilty…sniffle!…Take care youse guys….grunt!
10:47 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Dainty, and even some not so dainty licks all around. Throwing in some strong head bumps too, covered in love.
10:59 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Macy!…I just read about yer Paw getting a job!…Woooo!…Someone here knows all about how hard it is to get a good job after you reach or go beyond a certain age…snuffle!…No MATTER how much experience or knowledge you can bring, it is very hard to get a job…sniff!…So a big wonderful Congratulations to your Paw!!! ….Zow!
11:08 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Yes! Congrats to Macy’s dad on his new job! That is excellent news!
Rio: I’m a sled dog of a certain age. I think our kind age better than the two-leggeds although my Lady says we age too quickly.
11:17 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Home from day 3 of the really long shew. There were thunderstorms in the area this evening, so no ferris wheel rides were po9ssible. But the Storyteller disappeared for a while around 9 pm, and came back smelling like sage smoke. And we think we saw a few stray dog-type hairs on him.
We just read all the day’s news, and we will keep all of you in our thoughts.
Macy – woo hooo for your Dad.
Staff – you truly are a deer – thank you for taking care of little flutterbys. And the meek shall inherit the earth….
Rio and Rose – slow down you two – you are making me dizzy
And now – off to bed. G’night all
11:18 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Tenzing and Gus, We love you.
Night All
11:20 pm on August 22nd, 2013

Rain!…Hail!…Oh my! We have to go investigate….yeeep!
11:29 pm on August 22nd, 2013
RAIN!…A real nice rain coming down!down!down!…snort!…Oh how we have needed this…sniff!…Please rain and rain and rain…chuffle!
11:32 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Macy: Gus and I are feeling better all ready what with your not so dainty licks.
I wonder if it was the Storyteller that cleaned me up earlier? I was pink when my Lady dropped me off at the vet and my regular color when she picked me up this evening.
It’s been a long day and my Lady needs to do chores. Nighty noodles to all youse.
11:34 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Rebecca!…Maybe all this rain from heaven washed Mr.Tenzing clean…snuffle!…I hope youse all sleep well after chores and all that ….grunt!…My friend wishes she could help you out and or at least fix you a nice hot supper…wuffle!
11:37 pm on August 22nd, 2013
Raining!…It is STILL raining. This IS the longest rain we have had in ages…heh!heh!heh!
11:44 pm on August 22nd, 2013

It is not the zombie hour yet, and I wanted to leave a note for Tenzing Under The Quilt.
Tenzing, I hope all the meds help you, and having a liver problem myself, I thought I would tell you of an herb that I take that also helps canines with liver issues.
It is called milk thisle. One of few herbs that has been scientifically shown to work.
It might help you. Your twolegged might have to check it out with the vet, to make sure it won’t interfere with something youare taking. I know it helps me.

Melanie: Thank you for the information on thistle. My Lady is a shamrock girl, but she said she won’t say no to anything that will help me. She has to give a daily update on my health to the vet for the next few days, so she can ask about it then. If you have liver problems and I might have liver problems means we are like peas and carrots. My Lady say you have a great voice. That must mean I have a great bark. She also says you have great hair. That must mean I have a great coat. Head bumps to my twin.
My Lady is going to sleep on the couch with me tonight. I don’t think she’ll do much sleeping. Me?—the giraffes just arrived for the freestyle session. Wheee!
Wose is in my prayers, too. I’m as big as she is. What do you know—I have another twin.
Okay, I hear the music starting and the giraffes are warming up. Nighty noodles.

Thought of Tenzing and Gus all day. Hoping they both get feeling better sooner rather than later.
Arrived in Anchorage after 8+ hours calm and collected instead of ON MY LAST NERVE and HITTING THE BOTTLE. I will tinker more with the dosage but it looks like Trazodone really did the trick. Instead of on her feet panting like a steam engine and crying the whole trip, she mostly sat or laid down and panted softly. There was maybe a total of 15 minutes of whimpering during the trip. So I enjoyed the drive and feel very relaxed.
When stopped for road construction, if it is going to be a 20-30 minute wait, I walk Sadie; if it is just 10 minutes, she stays put. Here is a photo I snagged. Note: this is atypical–a first actually–but it still needs to be noted and celebrated. My baby, sniff.

Clap, clap, clap for CHH and Sadie. In keeping an eye in tenz. So far so good. We here worry about our favorite Hobbit. She is near and dear to the kennel.
