happiest with that blue ball clenched between her canines. Pepper loves coming out here. She's kind of cooped up at home, though she "does" doggie-day-care sometimes. But when she stays overnights, she can run to her silly heart's content. Pepper's purebred Boxer, two years old and Shadow doesn't even try to keep up with her. Laurie's barn is finally getting to where she'd like it to be. We've been fortunate with the part-time builders and their skills. Laurie learned how to build things growing up and hasn't forgotten a thing. Thank You!!
