Sage

Everyone asks: How is Sage handling her new sister?

I admit, I was a little worried.  Sage came into this house as top dog. Murphy was so docile, that she let Sage rule the roost.  But I did notice when Murphy died, Sage became quiet.  Oh, we had our fun, played football, but she seemed subdued.

Not any more.  She initiates play with Annie, takes swipes at her, lets her know when Annie has crossed over that boundary that delineates between top dog and young pup.  Plus, Sage knows she can come to me for all sorts of extra loving, and for treats that she shouldn't have (remember that weight loss thing I am working on?  Out the window).

I am proud of Sage.  She is full of amazing grace.

Murphy's day.
