I woke up this morning feeling awful about forgetting to mention two folks in yesterday's post.

We'd have had a lot of trouble if our neighbors, Tom and Patricia didn't come to the house every day after work (sometimes sending the teenager) to let Dove out.  Amanda works a lot of long days and Dove was eating quite a bit of extra food while she was nursing.  Double the food intake, double the poo output.  Yikes.

Anyway, by letting Dove out in the afternoon, we avoided a lot of poo on the floor, and took a lot of stress away from Amanda.  Tom and Patricia are the kind of folks everyone needs as a neighbor and we're thrilled they were part of the experience of raising these pups.
