@Divamarlene70 I wonder where people get dogs like this? Is there a cute store?

[Norrie Epstein @norrieepstein]

This is Nellie. For over 12 years she was a therapy dog visiting nursing homes, psychiatric facilities, and hospitals. Can anyone explain how she instinctively knew when someone went off their meds?

@sabizak One thing about Hardy: He was a great novelist AND a great poet. A rarity.

@DogUmwelt God forbid a Dalmatian’s spot is bigger than a palm or bleeds into another.

@DogUmwelt Standards defy nature

@ccollins43 @JamesLucasIT Yes and there weren’t many them either. One genius every 500 years seems bout right.

Breed doesn’t necessarily define the dog.
They didn’t win, but they finished—which for most of us that’s all that matters.
