The Third Dog

Tim and I each had our own dog. I had Panda and he had Maryann. Several years later another scrappy little annoying dog needed a home so we took it in. She's been with us for three years now.
Meet Roxy. Roxy chews on cardboard and leaves little piles of brown bits in my art room, gets on the furniture any chance she can, barks at the neighbors dog, digs holes in the backyard, is piggy and pushy and all around an irritating little dog. However, she has now insisted on being my new best friend. I guess all the time I had Panda I didn't pay enough attention to her. She's getting more attention now and loving it! I guess I do love this little bug-eyed dog.

She has always loved you. She knows you need some attention. What a little sweetheart, your granddaughter too. ;)

I am so glad you have a Roxy in your life.

I think there are always those around that love us but are just waiting for a place in our lives. That goes for animals and people.

That dog is too dumb to know anything! Does she lick lick lick?
