Ellensburg,Washington

My cousin Rusti emailed me today. She and hubby Jadon, and sister Kaley have been going camping in the mountains on the weekend. They took both of their dogs, Kate and Alley.

Skye and Rue

Skye got a surprise today, an email and picture of her sister RUE. When I picked up Skye all the puppies looked just alike to me but now they look really different. Rue decided to stay on the ranch with

Rusti, Jadon,

her Mom, Kate

and Aunt Allie.

Rue plans to work

Cattle at the ranch

Skye is going to be a

a Therapy dog when

She grows up--both

honorable dog professions.
