as you said, so many people want puppies, which are undeniably cute, but there are so many wonderful adult dogs who need loving homes.

to you and Katie! Give her a kiss on her forehead for me, right between her eyes in that soft, velvety little space.

Have you seen her run yet? Wonder if she has whippet speed?
