Adopters, put Vela at the top of your list! A dog that can sing has a lot going on upstairs. I'm on my second "singing" Irish setter, and they can learn words too. When dear Barack Obama was president, I taught my setter Melena to say "Obama." Asked for it on command when a cute African American girl walked down my street and noticed my dog. She. Was. Floored. I guarantee she will never forget that.

What say you, Vela?

I try to open up the world of caring for dogs for people who don't have them or are dog-curious :) They give us so much. I'm always amazed that they give us their bodies and their space. There's a huge IOU with my name on it. Pleasantries back atcha, AB.

I grew up with a Boxer, her name was Muggs and when she was a puppy she was hit by a car. My uncle was walking her and she saw my Dad across the street. Had to have richer left front leg amputated. She never realized she had 3 legs.

Happened in New York City in the late 50s and the driver who hit her paid the vet bills.

Well done, Cierra! Vela sounds like a corker. Our house is currently full with 3 rescues (2 dogs: Archer & Lego, and one cat: Garbanzo) . They make our lives so much sweeter.

Boxers are so sensitive to human emotions. Sweet girl.

Today I enjoyed myself at my quilting group and came home feeling energetic and ready to send out more messaging postcards.

I decided to contact Republican Senators about not voting for Todd Blanche for AG,

since he is Trump's personal attorney. I also said it was like putting the fox in the hen house. [Does that sound correct?] I also asked them to stop funding the Iran War and take the blame since Trump's ego will not let him ever admit it is over.

And that in my opinion Iran has no reason to give up nuclear capabilities since so

much of the rest of the world has that weapon... It would be suicide to give what

they have to Trump... who no one can trust.

But here is what I wanted to share... I phoned several senators and as I left my name

I enjoyed mentioning that I am a Contrarian. This is what I wanted to share with you tonight. I wanted to scare the daylights out of them...

Hurrah, fellow Contrarians.
