Happy Spring!

Everyone on the Dog Farm is doing well. Annie is still in her corner most of the time but she is also following me around more. Annie approaches Husband Bob anytime he has food and he's been very obliging. Several nights ago, Annie crept into our bedroom and slept beside the bed. She's been there every night since. Jasmine, Maggie, Brandy and Pennie are very accepting of Annie. Annie's trying to figure out how to play - she and Brandy ran together in the backyard and she shared a chew toy with Pennie.

Sunday morning began early with a phone call from Friend Judy. She had seen a dog running late Saturday night but couldn't catch it. Judy contacted the police department and they had a report of a missing dog. The owners lived 75 miles away and lost Sadie that afternoon while visiting North Platte. Judy called the owners and they returned to search for Sadie, but to no avail. Judy asked me to contact my "animal friends" to watch for Sadie. Within two hours, Sadie was located but she was not to be caught! Sadie was frantic with fear and running aimlessly. At one time, Friends Richard, Nancy and Gary, Husband Bob, three little boys, two men and I were trying to get Sadie. After 1 1/2 hours, Sadie was trapped and a couple hours later an exhausted but very, very happy dog was reunited with her family! Richard receives the Good Person Award and he has a bite from Sadie as a trophy.

Bob and Friend Gary sowed wild grass seed at the Bark Park over the weekend. April's showers are forcast to arrive tomorrow so let's hope the showers sprout the grass. The park is getting a lot of use. Out of town visitors to the Bark Park have complimented on it being a great stopping point on their travels.
