Dogs write to me! Yes, got the book. Thank you. Of course it doesn't fall into my area for writing or talking about, so what we will do is enjoy it, and then make sure it goes into deserving and appreciative hands. I'd pass your message on to Lulu, but she is a huge flirt, likes dogs in uniform, and has already gotten our local K-9 to ignore commands when she is in view. (He now recognizes my car!)
