Just wanted to take a moment to thank y'all for the birthday wishes! It is mass chaos around here with a new puppy for Nichole. Daisy Hope joined our family in the wee hours of Friday a.m. all the way from Newport Oregon. She is the puppy of two service dogs and a real sweet girl. Daisy is a white German shepherd born on 1/17/12. She's only about 25 pounds now, but she has huge paws and giant pink bunny ears. I swear her ears are as tall as her head is long forward! anyway, she keeps me hopping from 6:30 a.m. until an 11 p.m. walk! Tomorrow she gets fixed and some shots and microchipped. Looking forward to a long, happy time together! So, I will be really slow until we figure out the "new normal"; whatever that is. Be patient, and thanks!
