Thanks guys! Sadie is doing so well. She has settled down some but still filled with loving energy. She has her various communication skills that tell me just about anything she wants or needs. She has grown fond of sitting on the back patio to protect her family from anything unusual, while enjoying the cool breezes. Since my broken finger I started using a gentle lead and you know what, she took to it like a duck to water. I now have one finger power steering! i see an ortho tomorrow for the finger. Let's hope I don't require surgery.
