I sure will .. we went out and bought him some new doggie toys yesterday
afternoon.. he was thrilled.  It's so good to see him happy.

That's funny that Cash is getting so chubby :)  New girl sounds like she'll
find a great place over there :)

Should be great :)  Hope she gets there soon :)

We're looking at some labs in the shelters.. I almost don't want to do it yet,
but I think Toby needs a friend.. he goes outside, pees and comes right back
in, instantly.  That's not like him.. :(

Take care,
Janis
