Wow...I was so pooched yesterday I couldn't possibly put paw to laptop! The person that's not mom arrived again but this time with her man...she said they had been ski-touring and she looked worked! The dude was full of beans though, and maaaaan this guy was awesome! He loves sticks more than me, and he was so excited when he found more and more...I couldn't contain myself - we played and played and howled and grumbled and sang together...I'm sure he must have been a dog in a past life, he is clearly superior to other humans (aside from mom of course) AND he barks...wow...what a guy.
