[Guest guest]

Sue,

Forgive me if I am a bit confused now, it is a while since this...

But aren't you the Sue who has Sophie (a doxie, right?)??? Or am I

confusing you with another Sue now?

When I saw your name now, it just reminded me... I am now sitting

here with the beautiful card from years back, it has actually been

sitting in my bathroom all this time (not something I normally do,

only with this one), and I have taken it out of the cabinet often all

these years - as a good morning smile thing, because the picture of

Sophie is just so adorable, and the card you made also has such a

wonderful saying about friendship. It also have a picture of you and

your hubby in front of your house... Shanti loved the sweater she

" inherited " from Sophie, and now Peanut loves it... I think it was

from Drs & ... That sweater will be going strong for

years and years to come, and it is so cute... For years it was the

only doggie sweater Shanti had (so it meant so much to the both of

us!!!), I just could not find any here and then nobody shipped

internationally. Now I luckily discovered eBay where there's so much

wonderful dog stuff for reasonable prices... Not only that, but I can

get all these things which I just can't get here...

But even if that is the case, I just can't wait to go doggie shopping

with EDS friends in Buffalo, because nothing is like REAL " live "

shopping!!!! I am just like a kid when it comes to that, I have just

ended up thinking it is so fun to dress Peanut up... Actually that

has been a fun way of bonding in a different way for the two of us

too... You should see her now, she has food all over the floor,

playing with it... Do mom say NO??? LOL... I guess you know what the

answer to that is... She's having fun, and on top of that eating dry

kibble, so mom is just happy!!!

I just had to tell you about this. I really hope I remember right

now... If not, I will have to blame a hypermobile brain!!!

BTW, do you use clicker training??? I do use it, but for the most

part I don't use the clicker itself. We only train tricks though,

just for the fun of it... Peanut DEMANDS we " play click " each day,

it is so fun...
