The girls and I say THANKS for the comments!

Kay..I think Tori's coat is always changing...lol...one day it seems darker and the next I think it looks lighter.

Glacier...I loved hearing how Muskwa and Earle went under the couch to comfort Pingo...too sweet!

Hey Michelle...sorry to make you snort some water...lol. I have to admit that I got a kick out of that one! I'll try to post DUH warning next time


Yes, Amy...I think they really love each other They are so good together and seem to take care of each other.

Muddy4Paws....Yes, Katie is an akita . Akitas are very different dogs. Katie LOVES people but doesn't get along with other dogs. Of course she loves her little sister Tori though! I hear lots of bad stories about akitas also . This is why I hope that anyone who is considering getting one will do lots of homework on the breed.

Thanks again, Everyone!
