Nabisco arrived this evening to join Figg and Newton. She's a sweet and friendly pup who is terrorizing the other two for the moment. I am confident that they will become fast friends in no time.

We lost our 16 year old corgi, Alfalfa, today. She was very old and had survived malignant melanoma for five years. She was deaf, almost blind and had arthritic hips, but until today, she still would wag her tail and had a healthy appetite. I am glad she lived long enough to enjoy Figg and Newton for a while. They made her a little younger and a little zippier for a few months.
