Yes, he is cute, isn’t he? I’m so glad to have found your blog and am happy you’ve made your way over here too.

Kate, Bring on the foot licking, say I!

Hi Jana, We do so love him, it’s true. And he seems so happy to see us. This whole dog thing is way, way better than I ever thought it would be.

Lucy, Why yes!

Hey Mary, Right now, if they knew about the chick magnet thing, they’d refuse to walk him. But yes, in a matter of seconds, all that will change. Love, L

What a little hunkalove! Can’t wait to read more-

Hello dear Ms. OP — Archie’s only flaw, alas, is that he seems to like people more than his own kind. That might be because he believes himself to be a person, but we’ve got to get him used to other dogs before we take him out to play. (But I’m available for the aforementioned playing.)

Thank you Giniann — So far so good.

Oh Q, that’s so sweet. He is indeed a wellspring of good feelings. I’m glad to hear about your rescue operation. It’s such a good thing to do.

Thanks Courtney — I didn’t know about your dog fever. I’ll look forward to hearing where that goes.

And thank you too Heather — I whispered that in Archie’s ear and he seemed quite happy to hear it.

Ben Daniel, you are a clever fellow. I’ve got this image of the Monkey Island Ferry cruising along the bay, its inhabitants snacking, playing, hanging out happily.

HMH — He’s actually the most Dickensian of dogs: the smart, cute, appealing orphan.

He said: “Pappy!” when he saw Archie’s photo, then when he saw the comments page he said: “What DAT?” then “woof! woof! woof! Pappy!” This was his way of saying he wanted to see the puppy photo again!

My mother detested dogs having been raised by a mother who suspected they might be Trojan horses for the devil. (Now, of course, we know through scientific methods that Ronald McDonald is really Satan’s Trojan horse).

Several years ago my wife and I rescued a stray dog from the streets. I have been in love ever since.

I am so happy you found yet another wellspring of joy this great universe has to offer.

w/ fond regards,

Q

You’re back, and with two new posts (and photos) well worth waiting for. Your Italian vacation sounds heavenly, and Archie does indeed look like the sweetest dog in the world. He has a very serious, adoring expression on his adorably furry face. I’m sure you captured his soul.

I’m looking forward to more on Italy and Romantic-era poets, as well as just your delightful presence in the blog-o-verse. Welcome, welcome, welcome back Ms. Lily, oh, most welcome!

~Love and Blessings,
Selene~

Your use of “The Jolly Roger” as a moniker for your home has had me laughing since Tuesday. I brought the matter up with my wife, and we’ve decided that our home also should have a maritime designation. So now the manse is the “Monkey Island Ferry.” (We have three kids between the ages of two and five).

Thank you for helping us come into a new understanding of ourselves.

Ben
