My daughter who had moved out has been staying with us this week. She brought her varmints with her, two gerbels and this little hound puppy. So now I have this dog all day while Bonnie is at work or in class. I have a feeling that somehow this dog will be staying with me while Bonnie is off in the Air Force in a few months. Oh, joy. I'm not really a dog person, but the puppy seems to be behaving pretty well. Now I have some company on my walks. The little pup is afraid of even a baby raccoon. But she has taken a keen interest in squirrels. Hmm. Maybe I can get some use out this little varmint after all.
