Visitor

When Chris and his family came over to prune some shrubs for us they brought along this little friend. She was in the road near their home so he rescued her from passing traffic. You can see her little tags. They say her name is Princess and there was a phone number for the owner. Chris left a message then they all came over here. I was smitten instantly. One of the kids wondered aloud what they would do with her if they went on vacation and hadn't been able to make connections with the owner. I told them that if we weren't looking at health things, I would love to tend her. Someone else said, "See, what did I tell you!" My reputation as an animal lover, even on a part time basis is solidly intact. While they were here, Chris got the important call on his cell, so I was only able to enjoy Princess for less than an hour. But what a delight. She was obviously well trained, didn't bark at all during her stay, and I am very glad I got to experience this little dog even for such a short time. Princess is another of my "part-time pets".
Nick with Princess and his cash for a job well done.

It's amazing but I can't even imagine my life now WITHOUT Chance and Daisy. They are my babies, and I love them both so much! You have been such a great mom, that there is little doubt you'd make a great babysitter if needed!

Animals are drawn to you like people are . . . they can tell you are a kind kindred! I wish I could have seen Princess, she sounds adorable!
