The great pleasure of dogs is that you make a fool of yourself with them and not only will they not scold you, they will make fools of themselves too.

-- Samuel Butler

HOWLOWEEN 1992
After several years of watching the kids in the neighborhood running around in costumes and getting "treats" at Howloween, Misha decided that she'd like to do this, too! So, we humored her and took her around the neighborhood in her new costume. She was a hit!! (And she received treats, too.)

The extent to which my four-legged kids control my existence is relegated to the status of "secret life" most of the time. The average American on the street just cannot comprehend inter-species parent-child relationships.

HOWLOWEEN 1993

April was our random-bred little girl, left tied to the door of our local Humane Society one stormy night in March 1993. She was adopted at a guess-timated age of two years on 1 April 1993, hence her name. When April saw the costume that Misha had worn for Howloween last year, well, she had to have one, too. Top: Margaret Skrenes Middle: Neal Skrenes & Andréa Denninger Bottom: April & Misha Misha & April won third place in a costume contest in 1994.

THE BEST TREAT YET!
	"Hey, look what I found! This is the biggest darn bone I've ever dug up! Ticks or Fleas!" If a dog's prayers were answered, bones would rain from the sky. -- Old Proverb
