Aren't I special? I've got the scars to prove it. So I'm an alcoholic and a victim of multiple unforeseen forces. Howdy doody.<BR/><BR/>There was no pepper spray and no parents "in residence". I raised myself by the skin of my frickin nose. Yes- I am a little pissed right now but it is better than the alternative.

When people come towards us, I say SIT. he does, and we wait for them to pass. Not because Theo would do anything but say "howdy" to them but I am very aware that he is large and causes fear in some people, so I make sure he sits still while people pass us. <BR/>I'm glad you are getting to run again!!!Pammiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00513814300181006348noreply@blogger.com
