THE ALLURE OF SIDEWALKS

    In the 13+ years of owning a dog, my daughter has never requested to walk the dog.  'Go for a walk', yes, but 'be responsible for the dog', never.  The other day, Billye brought me Socks' leash so we headed out the door.  The 3 of us walked around the block and Billye held on to the leash without dropping it once!  (Previously, a trek of this distance would mean the leash got dropped no fewer than 10 times.)


Those of you who know us, know this is a red letter day.  



The beauty of spring and the allure of sidewalks.  Yet another reason we are so happy in our new home here on Hawthorne Avenue.

SOCKS MAKES HERSELF AT HOME

Our dear dog has made herself at home here on Hawthorne Ave.


 She watches as Billye fills the jar with dog treats.


 She silently hopes Michael will drop a pancake or sausage near her.


She attends porch parties.


She relaxes with her people on the porch.



She finds peace and quiet in the corner of Billye's room.
