This past weekend, we travelled to Maine once again with Martha. Martha told Sharkey and me that we were going there for a special TV shoot, which we were to be a part of. We Frenchies were given baths and GK even had to go to the groomer. This is the first part of our …

I don’t know what the deal is with Sharkey. She’s always trying to make friends with the cats. I keep telling her that it just won’t happen, but she persists anyway. Why would anyone want so much rejection?

This past weekend, Francesca, Sharkey, and I had a great time with Martha in East Hampton. The weather was spectacular and it is such a lovely place to go walking. We three dogs were waiting for Martha, who proved to be a little late. You know that patience is definitely a virtue.
