Dog

Why does watching a dog be a dog fill one with happiness?

When I had Ripley, he could recognize the sound of specific cars and knew when people were coming home. Lily has not learned the sound of our cars yet, I don't think. Or else she doesn't care when we come home. 

She HAS however learned the sound of her best friend's car. The three year-old-who lives next door has a pink Jeep (I think it's a Jeep) and when she's out cruising in the driveway, Lily freaks out and wants to go outside. 

And we know it is because of the three-year-old and not the fact that it is a Jeep because I drive a Jeep, too.

Of course maybe if I painted it pink...
