Canoga's Artemis and her pups (June 3, 2008)I suppose this blog is a reaction to the decision to add another dog to our household. She was born on June 1. For now, at least, the enthusiasm over getting a new dog, a new breed of dog, has been tempered by an even dose of longing for my beloved Abbey. Lilly, or Tiger Lilly, as Kendall has named her, is a german shorthair pointer, a so-called versatile hunting dog. As it turns out, one of the female pups has a heart shaped blaze on her head, an immediate attraction to my daughter. So, we have placed a deposit, and in August, eleven months after Abbey's passing, we plan to retrieve her.
