one special dog

we celebrated a noteable anniversary last saturday. our darling dog, WeeBeastie, established our canine family exactly a year ago. on a day of subzero temperature, we journeyed down to bloomington to retrieve our poochie at a rest area meeting point with the colonel potter's cairn terrier rescue. even a speeding ticket from yet another fine example why bully boys needn't be allowed in the police force couldn't dampen our spirits. the foster lady cried when she turned the fur baby over to us and WeeBeastie responded by biting my wrist. even with a lightly bleeding wound, i knew she was the terrier i'd always dreamed of having.

this morning showed our dog baby in feisty & fun spirits. she played pouncing games with her kibble, dragging it to to her dining area on our oriental rug and jumping on the pieces to flex her power. we spent some time playing "grab your tongue" with nary a nip to be reported. she has grown to trust us and love. and we love her.

it's really nice to have a furry friend to cuddle. lucky for her i'm past the stage of dressing pets in cabbage patch kid clothes.
