Oh no, I wasn't directing that at you, Pam. I don't really think I was directing it at anyone in particular even. Maybe I was talking to myself again

I am so glad Ripley has you. Your love has turned him from a scared little tumbleweed into a beautiful, happy, pampered doggie! And Bella and all your past Poodles are just as lucky!

As a side note, I've been trying to find you something that is really cute, but I can't find sizes big enough So maybe I'll just tell you about it and you can see if you have them there. Amy told me about this cute little dog shirt that Walmart has that says 'Attack Poodle'. I finally found one for Reece, but it is quite the snug fit (and its extra large ). I wasn't sure how much Ripely and Reece differ in size. And I doubt I'd ever find one big enough for beautiful Bella. Anyway, maybe your Walmart will have bigger sizes!
