Our Not So Little Helper!

Last month, after only being married 15 years ;~) we bought some new furniture for our front room. Before our couch and love seat arrived, we were looking at the empty space where our furniture would go. After some thought, Don mentioned that we should probably paint the walls too!! Well who am I to argue with such brilliance (besides, It wasn't like I was going to be doing any of the painting). Casey, our not so little Irish Setter LOVES Don. So much so, that he follows Don everywhere he goes. But think about it. Wet paint and a nosy dog... what does that mean? T-R-O-U-B-L-E-! That's right, when Don was cleaning up after the paint job, he turned around to see that Casey was trying to help. Casey had paint on his nose, tail, and all in between. This little episode reminded us that Casey also gets his nose into everything else we are doing, including getting between us and anybody who comes to visit. So we decided to add French doors to our front parlor. As it was, Casey had a tendency to scare away anyone who came to our door. And we need all the friends we can get!!! :~) If you have been refusing to come to our house to visit, your excuse is gone!!!
