Maggie and Chumley in their new home!
There is a six foot fence separating the yard from the people next door. My neighbor came out with her dog and some dogs she is petsitting and I wanted to minimize the chances that they'd all be barking at the strangers on the other side of the fence. So I invited the 3 dogs into the yard. It went so well! They are such sweet dogs. Wesley, an older golden retriever, is our neighbor and is a pure sweetheart. He and Maggie played a nice little game of fetch (Wesley) / keep away (Maggie). The big test came tonight when I went upstairs. I wasn't sure if Chum could make it. But after a nervous pause, she motored up the stairs by herself and then back down to go for a walk and then up again for bedtime. Woo hoo! Ugly stair treads and carpet tape were successful! Both girls are sleeping heavily from an exciting day. I will try to get some pictures on tomorrow. . . |

How are you feeling Val- with all the bending and lifting that is involved with moving- I hope you are doing ok! Sounds like Chumley and Maggie are going to really enjoy their new digs! So nice to have playmate next door.
The best news is Chumley being able to manuever the stairs. What a wonder....
Pictures please!

| Chumley is truly amazing! To think just a few months ago she couldn't walk and was miserable. We can all learn from Chums......never give up. |
| Fantastic, Val! I can't wait to see pictures of the house. How are you feeling? |
| YAY Welcome home chum and mags, the stairs for chum woo hoo you keep going girl, amazing.

| So glad to hear you're all settled into your new home! And how about that Chummie girl, manuevering those steps?? What a champ!
What a great thing to have a playmate for Maggie right next door - could things get any better?? Hope your leg is doing alright as well. |
| OK Val, why do Chums and Maggie have to share the yard with the gator and rhino? Yea gads, here they probably thought the yard would be there own!!
So far, beautiful yard and patio with column making me very curious about the rest of the house!! |

The rhino and the crocodile were part of a small bronze zoo my dad had. It was magical. There were horses grazing in a pasture, herons at the water's edge, a baby elephant, a cougar . . . The animals got divided up by various family members when he died. They remind me of his whimsical spirit.  |
