Dear Sadie:
About this time of year my person
goes out into the yard and dig holes.
When she goes in the house, I want to
help her so I dig a few of my own. But
then she comes to the door and starts
yelling at me. I am so confused! What
am I doing wrong? I want to keep my
person happy.
Signed, Muffin in Portsmouth
Dear Muffin,
Humans can be odd creatures at
times. I have figured out that what
they are doing is something called
“planting a garden”. It is alright for
them to dig holes because they put
plants in them, but when you dig a hole
you are just making a hole. Me, I get
excited when they start digging holes
because that means in a few months I
will get to pick me some tomatoes.
The next best thing to chicken is fresh
picked tomatoes. Yum!
So my advice to you is to let them do
the digging and the planting and wait
for those luscious tomatoes. Then all
you will have to do is run fast enough
to get away with your prize!
Dear Sadie,
We are considering adopting a dog but
he only has three legs. How will he get
around and what special care needs
might he have?
Signed, Hopping in Hampton
Dear Hopping,
Miss Sadie is touched that you are
considering adopting a special needs
dog. It takes a special heart to make
room for one of us who is missing a
part or two. We happen to have a
foster in the house right now who has a
bad front leg. He’s still got the leg, but
it cannot bear much weight. We call
him “Flash” if that is any indication of
what you can expect.
