An Introduction


The last day of July and we have had many foggy days without much sunshine, but if you look at the picture closely, you will see Mocha Mia, the newest member of daughter Pat's family and a bright ray of sunshine. I doubt "Moki" is eight weeks old, part of a litter of five whose mother belonged to a homeless woman. She is chocolate brown with beautiful eyes, very shy and has already made inroads to Pat's heart and her bed. She has her own bed, her own crate, her own toys and the voice of 'bugle ann' . . . what's not to love! Pat is a dog lover, always has been, and when she lost her beautiful Jasmine several years ago, she decided that she was not going to have a dog again. Losing them was much too painful, but . . .a friend led her to the shelter and the five little orphans nobody wanted were being admired, some frisky and one soft doe eyed beauty followed her around ----right out the door to a new home.
Pat has her job cut out for her as "Moki" tries to show who is boss. It is going to be an interesting year and I have a front row seat. It only took one puppy kiss and I am sure my new granddog is going to be a beauty and hopefully will learn quickly that I only allow treats in my kitchen.
I hope that you are young enough to have the will and spirit to enjoy a dog, a cat, a bird, a parrot a little white mouse, or a fish in a bowl and accept the unconditional love they give.
