A weekend visitor




The Ronaghans hosted a four legged friend this weekend: Charlie, a very well-mannered and incredibly docile retriever. Charlie's regular pre-schooler, Sophie, was away with her parents on an overnight trip.

Having Charlie around was lots of fun, and brought Daddy fond memories of his childhood days with Snuggles, the Ronaghan family dog (a retriever/??? cross). Gwendolyn was also quite smitten with our rental pooch; in her words: "I love Charlie because he has very soft fur and a tail that wags."

Thanks for coming over, Charlie! You're a wonderful dog, despite your habit of constantly patrolling for accidentally dropped people food. (Do you really think all that work was worth it for half a bagel and a tortilla chip?) Next time, however, we hope you'll avoid rolling in dog poop at the beach...
