- About Me:
- I've been living in Arizona for about 4 years, and have gotten very interested in organic gardening, "green living," and local healthy eating. I'm looking for ideas on how to be able to do these things well in this hot dry climate. (I'm originally from southern California, where anything grows!!) Judy

How did the session go? I'm really curious about people's reaction to that book. Did everyone bring food to share?

Yes, even our vet said, "It was meant to be" speaking of Doug showng up at the exact moment he did otherwise she probably would have been hit again - and after we had lost Abbey. Abbey was the type of dog who would not allow any other animal to even come into our yard. If she had still been alive she never would have allowed Daisy into our lives.
I think you'll like Ravelry but it does take up a lot of time to keep up with it - I only check it out about once a week if that. I can't remember if my name on Ravelry is Lindy or turtlewoman? :-D
Actually, my husband found Daisy. She had been hit by a car and left out on the highway. She was trying to claw her way off the road (broken pelvis) when Doug saw her. He stopped out in the middle of 4-lane Hwy. 60, scooped her off the pavement and took her immediately to our vet in Wickenburg. We had just (2 weeks earlier) lost our 12 1/2 year old Abbey to cancer and were not ready for another dog. However, destiny intervened and we picked Daisy up from our vets 11 days later. When Doug found her she had been a homeless street puppy (vet said she was about 6 mos. old), starving, emaciated, filthy. It took her a long time to understand that she had a forever home and that no one was ever going to treat her badly again. She still hates loud noises of any kind and it has taken her the 2 1/2 years she has been with us to get used to riding in a car without fear. She still doesn't like it much but will go for a ride without a fuss. She acquired her name during her 11 day stay at the vet's - the girls who took care of her named her and we kept it.
You're right - your white dog does have cattle dog ears. Your pit is really handsome.
I look forward to seeing you at the next book gathering.
