Sylvie is a fantastic dog! Smart, funny and very playful. Her colors are changing... Her undercoat is gone so the blacks and tans are showing more in the light. Sylvie and I went for a walk this evening and she saw a deer run across the railbed. I thought she was going to pull my arm out of the socket. She was also intrigued by a flock of Canada Geese flying over. The tips of her ears still fold over no matter how excited she is --she's so cute! We're very happy with her and she seems to be very happy.

We are having a great time with Sylvie! She is getting very comfortable in her new home and she's growing like a weed. I'll send new pics soon. Sylvie doesn't seem to mind the thunder. We were out early yesterday afternoon between storms and she'd just swing her head in that direction and pop up her ears. She does have a problem with riding in the car. We had to go to Spokane a couple of days ago and she drooled most of the way. We just reassured her everything was O.K. and gave her more water. She seemed to be doing better by the time we got home.
