He's been our vet since 1992, taking care of nine of our family members during those years. Shown here with Gridley at eight weeks for his first check up.

12.26.11 Denali

This is Denali, my friend Gail's yellow Lab. I made this painting for Gail for her birthday--December 26th. You may remember Gail from my blog posting on 1.13.11. She's the fighter. She's still fighting and every birthday is a victory. Happy Birthday Gail.

9.20.11 Ron and Sophie

Ron and Sophie, his 10-yr. old English Springer Spaniel. Met them at a farmers' market in La Valle, WI last weekend. Sophie was a rescue dog. I think she rescued Ron.

7.11.11: Annie

Annie is our 13 yr. old Entlebucher Sennenhund. We got her as a puppy from Wilmette Pet Shop. I was supposed to get an aquarium with tropical fish for my 50th birthday. Got Annie instead. She's stubborn, a very picky eater, cranky and leaves little puddles on the wood floors but, of course, we love her.

1.26.11 Michael's Shoe Repair

Gridley's not a bad dog. He's just a one year old and likes to chew things with appealing smells. And, 'somebody' left her closet door open.
