I would have liked to have seen this 2:00 am chase.

> Dear Dinah, of course you aren't too old to get a puppy! I'm 68 and someone dropped two German shepherd puppies here last summer and I kept them. Dom Deluise and Dinah Shore are their names. Dom is going to be huge. Probably 80-90 lbs. He is an excellent watchdog. They both are very good at guarding. Dinah especially hates crows and barks at them if they have the temerity to walk in her pasture. Dom is terrified of Thelma, of "Thelma and Louise" because she marches up and gets some of the food out of his pan. She pecks him on the nose if he doesn't move back. Thelma is a hen, one of three. In fact, Thelma has established herself as the disciplinarian of the entire menagerie. She chases anyone who earns her scorn. We have no idea what 'earns her scorn' but she certainly knows and doesn't waste any time letting the offender know about it. She raises up her wings and jumps into the air and lands running. She is black with beautiful emerald highlights on her feathers. I could go on and on about the pets. There are more than I've named. I could tell you about breaking up the bull fight that started just outside the yard by my window. I was so mad that they were fighting that close to the house that I contemplated shooting them. Not really. But I was mad. Who wants to listen to bulls bellowing at 2 a.m.? I chase them in my pickup while hitting them on the butt with a broom. I'm sure that aliens have given up on landing in Oklahoma.
> Get a puppy if you want and need one! It changes e verything. I feel about 40 now. Pat
