I didn’t know you’d paid twice for the mutt from hell. *laugh* Rusty was a good dog in that you never had to worry about him around kids – he was very gentle, unless it was nursing shoes or flapping sheets. But, lordy, was he a hyperactive thing! Talk about needing Doggie Ritalin!

I think PK’s Fu Manchu would have been much the same, had he lived longer.

The funniest part of the Rusty tale, lies in the fact that one day I packed him up, took him to the shelter, paid them to take him, and then decided to lie about it. I told all of you, and most especially Josh, that he must have run away. Lo, and behold, a week later we pass a couple walking that Devil Dog. Josh started yelling, “that’s Rusty, they have Rusty.” Another lie ensued, whereby I told them that this was our “runaway” dog, and we had all beeen heartbroken that he had not been found. They were shocked that the shelter was so careless to put dogs up for adoption, especially when they had been contacted by the owners. They felt so bad, in fact,that they let us take him home. I just had to reimburse them the Doggie Adoption Fee. (Oh what a tangled web, I did weave!!)
Children, parents, and pets. The saga lives on.

Thanks for stopping by!

I have to tell you – I emailed your post to everyone in my address book. I’d never heard about inflammatory breast cancer until I read it, and I’m sure it’s the same with most – if not all – of the women I know.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. ((Hugs))
