Murphy Are You In There?

Sage does not wear silly hats, no dog frillies, and won't even deign to sleep under a blanket no matter how cold it is.

Murphy, on the other hand, indulged me. She wore my silly hats, she would allow herself to be zipped into a sleeping bad, and once wore a Yale T-shirt!

I think I have another Murphy. I read in Just Labs a marvelous obituary of a black lab. And several months later, the woman was owned by a pup. She said what goes without saying, that each dog is unique, each brings marvelous qualities. And though you may have lost a fantastic dog, the new pup has "the right stuff, too." But I have to say, this Annie. There sure is a lot o' Murphy in her!

Murphy's day.
