Beautiful addition.
I tried to set up the pics right and didn't quite get it correct, but at least I don't have to stand on my head (too pointy). ;D
I'm not as good at it as riverbee! :yes:

It's easy to spoil them during the holidays. :)

I am firm believer that a well trained dog makes for a good pet.  So even though she is underweight, she won't be getting spoiled by food treats through the holidays. but we will do our best to get her up to her normal weight.  We are already working on training her to go to her bed when we sit down to eat.  My long range goal is to train her as a therapy dog and take her for visitations to nursing homes.  She was so funny this afternoon when I took her off the leash and let her run in the yard.  She was running like her butt was on fire as if to say, I'm free, I'm free.  Took her to PetSmart and she was a hit.  Cats are not happy and have been hiding in the basement but time will solve that issue.
She was already investigating the beehive and the girls were flying today in this warm weather.  I see a sting in her future if she keeps snooping.

Hi Les, I too believe in a well behaved dog. Have trained all my dogs. I'm glad Lizzie found you ;)
