Today’s warm welcome

Today's really warm welcome goes out to Ambre and Gaelle from Montreal, and i mean really warm welcome. They came to my aid in an emergency, and then i had to come to their aid. While these were going on, Tiffany called with her own emergency, which i am trying to help her resolve, 800 miles away.

Tiffany and company...

September 26...

Today's really warm welcome goes out to Tiffany,Samara, Kira and Ringo. Meeting you was the highlight of the trip so far by a long shot, and probably will stay that way. That's going to be hard to beat.

Safe travels to the four of you and Donner looks forward to seeing Ringo back in DC.

Otto

Today’s welcome goes out to Otto, a big -make that very big- eight-month old white Pyrenees and his guardians whom Donner met on his walk tonight. In fact, met twice, since we both circled the block in different directions and met up a second time. Donner could not get enough of his new friend.

Today's welcome goes out to...Mowey

All dogs have a favorite treat.  Donner has at least five: going for a ride, going for a walk, going swimming, scratching his muzzle against people, and most of all, meeting and greeting dogs, all dogs, big and small, friendly and shy, etc. and etc. He truly never met a dog he did not like  and never tires of meeting new ones.  After four years of straining at the end of his chain to meet dogs in LA backyards, he honed his present practice of insisting that he greet every dog within 200 feet he sees.
 
Today he had the good fortune to meet Mowey (?), a big beautiful yellow Labrador retriever we ran into on the way to Donner’s morning “office” at Starbucks on the Waterfront. I did not get Mowey’s guardian’s name, but he is her first dog and so he has a formidable task ahead of him to make that sure she understands what her first obligation in life is. By the looks of it, it is clear she understands that already.
