National Dog Day (195.6)
I shouldn't let National Dog Day go by without talking about the dogs who are no longer with us. Picasso and Malcolm and Dixie and Kaiya and Mya and Einstein and Scout and Sashi and Sonny and Sofie and Melodie and Nikki, among my canine houseguests. Ella and Lucy and Thor and Indy and Max and Stanley and Ripley and Nike and Miles and Ralph and Jack and Flipflop and Sirius and Mimi and Brian and Drew and Luna and Austen and Shakespeare and too many more of your dogs to name who I've met and scritched and cuddled. Gloria, who taught me that pit bulls were awesome. Rex, who taught us that two was the correct number of dogs. And never far from my mind, the bestest piglet, Miss August Moon. 💜
