SHe tore her paw pad - I think on a rusty old nail on the porch. I had to keep it wrapped and neosporined for about 3 weeks but it healed back together... Did you see the other woman's pic who posted? That's why I did it - she has an identical dog as her profile pic! HEY: when are you and E coming to visit?

Spider and I miss you. Incidentally, we've had to change the name of the band to Val Esway & the Bed Breakers, due to an unfortunate yet hilarious slip of the tongue that I experienced recently at a highly paid winery gig. You will always be a part of the band, no matter what we call ourselves! xxoo!
