Our dog wasn’t clear about the kind of puppy he wanted. Then again, we don’t seem to be able to choose the dogs that come into our lives. We end up with the dogs we’re meant to have. The puppy in question quickly grew to twice the dog’s size and three times his weight. Yet, he’s still the puppy.

As an early Father’s Day outing, we had a friend’s puppy over to play, figuring the youngsters could wear each other out and everybody would get a good night’s sleep.

Seems to have worked. We enjoyed a peaceful evening.
