Ohhh Anna ...

Oh Anna...! Wherefore art thou my beloved Anna,

I sought you in the great green lawns of Dog Woods - sniffing high, sniffing low ...

But you were not to be seen,

I checked your crate many times

But your constant place that your lovely presence inhabits to rest lies empty

I sniffed for you in the yummy confines of the kitchen

But all I got were whiffs of the Chief's cooking - though delicious, had none of your unique fragrance!

I wailed for you throughout the Chief's Den

Yet I could not even catch a glimpse of your delightfully sharp nose that accentuates the shape of your beautiful furry face ...

I even ventured to where I am banned - to the very TOP of the Stairs and Beyond ...

But alas, my darling ... you are not to be found!

Oh Anna, my darling dearest ... I am lost without yous ...

Arroooooo!

(Snoopy : Dear Gentle Readers, Tuffy's more than a little love sick because Anna there about to go into heat ... The Chief simply had to do something about since us canines at Dog Woods are meant to be pets, not breeding animals. As much as we love puppies, we've got to be practical. We've had the fortune of a happy 'accident' last year resulting in our furry cute Dobie Hound Fur Kids. But having Anna getting preggers twice would be sheer carelessness...unless the Chief decides to go into the breeding business ... which she isn't. So Anna's being fixed as I paw this. Dog Woods can handle only so many four legged-ed without driving each other crazy ... humans included! We hope Anna comes back soon)
