It's hard to believe another year has flown so quickly by. I leave behind in the old year my best friend, Daisy, who gave me so much happiness and devotion during her brief time on earth. But I enter the new year with a new friend, a peach of a girl named Peaches, who is also devoted to me already. She's gentle and sweet. Once she settles into her new life and feels more at home here she is going to be a wonderful, loving companion, and I'm glad she's come into our lives. Today was a more peaceful day between our new dog and our old one. Just one minor grumble from Bubba over a Milkbone Peaches came too close to. I think in time they'll be good friends and contented packmates.

May 2007 bring you blessings, good fortune, and wishes fulfilled. A toast to happiness, health, peace, and prosperity for all.

Happy New Year to you and to your best fur friends. May every dog this night enjoy a warm hearth and a full belly, as mine are, and to their humans the same.
