Yesterday, my Missy, the border collie who snuck into my house in Feb of 2013 after someone dumped her in the National Forest, and who found me after 2 harrowing and scary weeks, had to have oral surgery yesterday. She is Lady’s big sis and teacher/mentor. She is not feeling well and needs special care, so that is what I am doing for the next week or so. I’ll be keeping an eye on things, but mostly, taking care of her.
