Things I Will Miss

As excited as we are to be making this move to our barnspace, we will also be very sad to leave the home we have come to love. The thing I will miss the most are my walks in Robert E. Lee park with friends and dogs and occasionally matthew. I am sad that Iggy will no longer have access to the excellent learning resources a large city can provide - she has become dependent on Ruby in learning how to navigate the big bad world of dogs.

For instance, she has learned from Ruby how to fetch a stick that has been thrown into the water:

Step 1: Swim out in the water to retrieve said stick:

Step 2: Swim in the opposite direction to bring said stick to shore:

Step 3: Steal the stick from the dumb dog who just did all that swimming:


Iggy has also been schooled in all kinds of ninja escape moves by the master Rubbler:

But most of all, she's learned that looks will get you far in this world. Ruby, you see, used her wily ways to get herself out of the pound. Talk about star power! Show them your pearly whites, Iggy, and give them some SPARKLE!
