Been too long....

It's about time to get back to writing...this blog that is. So much has happened over the past few months I couldn't even begin to write it all, so we'll start from today with some quick history.

Yes, Maddie the newest pup, is completely housebroken and has been for quite some time. She continues to be a little shy around new things but now explores with encouragement. She's learning new tricks all the time. She has just started her first formal obedience class.

Trevar, our handsome Scottie, unfortunately had a MAJOR dental dilemma to where he had to have several back teeth extracted. This was the first time he ever had any problem, but he took it all better than I would have. It was a very strange anomaly and one we hope we never see repeated. He's looking forward to the pool opening.

Darby, our eldest Westie, celebrated her 16 th birthday on March 2! Hard to believe. Since she came to live with me when she was almost two, I continually remind her she at least owes me two years. Her eye sight is failing along with her hearing (except when she hears dinner), and motorically she is a little awkward (except when she hears dinner), but she is still very much enjoying herself. And we enjoy her silliness too!

And then there is Rori...the animated one. Rori had the distinct honor to debut in community theater. Rori has been playing the part of Belle in The Miracle Worker production at The Strawberry Playhouse in Tuscarora, PA. It has been a fun and interesting experience and she has met a lot of new people. She has enjoyed the attention and I think she even liked being on stage, once she became familiar with the routine. (Below Rori pictured w/one of the young actresses portraying Helen Keller-face blurred pending permission of parents) Rori will be performing again this weekend with a different young actress.

"For the Love of Hanna" my latest work-in-progress is progressing, albeit slowly. I hope to have it completed including edits, by summer. I have to.

So that pretty much is catch-up...at least with the dogs.

Oh we're trying to rescue a dog that has been running the mountain for almost a year, check out his blog/story http://savingteddy.blogspot.com
