THE GIFT OF A NORMAL DAY

What a pleasure is this gift of a normal day -- a day without incident, a day without having to call the vet, a night without trying to coax a loved one (canine or human) back from unknown neurological territory.

I don't know who's reading this blog, but if you are new to the Cavalier community, there's a mailing list you should know about. There's a link to it in the sidebar at the opening of this blog, and I hope you'll follow it, no matter what breed or mix of dog you have. The Hoflin publishing website hosts a number of breed-specific mailing lists; while I can't comment on the others, I can tell you that the Cavalier list hosted there has been invaluable to me over the course of my years with this breed. I cannot imagine having a Cavalier without it. The warmth and generosity of the people on this list has touched me deeply, and will continue to do so as my two little ones follow their meandering path to the Rainbow Bridge. To all who've responded, or just "lurked," over the years, supporting our shared journey with solid information, practical advice, encouragement, thank you.
