Like in most modern urban habitats, the neighbors are mostly a mystery. But sweet Dolly knows them all! Tofu, Dash, Bandit, Shandel, Mendel, Leo, Nate, Becca and Phoebe - they are all her buddies. Adorable Gucci can wiggle under the fence from the house catercorner to ours and he visits Dolly regularly. A few times he has even slipped through Dolly's Doggy Door and I've found him sitting on the living room rug.Our neighborhood is filled with dog lovers and you can meet them while strolling with your pooch and of course you instantly have something in common to chat about. Three dogs live next door to the right and three live next door to the left. The three to the left belong to Snowbirds and just like me, Dolly looks forward to winter visitors.
When I was little I thought the best neighborhood would look like the one in Lady and the Tramp - well kept homes with lush landscaping and welcoming streetlights and happy dogs who talked to each other. There is no Victorian Gingerbread here but everything else is perfect.
