Pedie Twinkie Goes Home

Pedie Twinkie, the dog formally known as Pedie, is going home. Well, that's not exactly true. The truth is Twinkie is going to her new home.

The deal is that Twinkie used to belong to my mother-in-law, but my mother-in-law has since moved into a new place that doesn't accept pets. (Barbarians.) So, Twinkie has found a new home with a family member who lives in Arizona. That family member has been staying with us for the past few weeks, and has taken a shine to ol' Twinkie, and the feeling seems to be mutual. All parties agreed it was the best thing for Twinkie, and the new name was unanimously approved by secret vote.

Twinkie has been a part of our little crew for so long it seems like she is a permanent member of our pack, and I am sure there will be tears shed when she leaves for home this afternoon. Still, we are full up with pets, and Twinkie will have much more territory to roam in Arizona, so I think it will work out quite well.

Twinkie, you have been a great companion and playmate for Jackie. Sure, she gets a little short tempered with you, but I know she will miss you very much. Angel will also miss the only animal in the house who dares take his prized stuffed toy. And is able to keep it.

Twinkie is a pretty little girl. Those tear stains under her eyes have pretty much disappeared making her even prettier. Twinkie is NOT a vampire. But she does play one in the movies. This is one of Twinkie's stranger moves during play time. She tries to stand on my baby Jackie! Jacqueline doesn't stand for it, and will ultimately get Twinkie back in a position where they are on equal ground. When Jackie has had enough, she makes her point known.

Be well, dear Twinkie. Angel, Jackie, and I will be looking forward to your visits, and we will certainly go visit you. In the mean time, send us plenty of post cards!

Check in next week for a new chapter in The Adventures of Angel and Jacqueline. And don't forget to check out the Carnival of the Dogs at Mickey's Musings, and the Friday Ark at The Modulator for more interesting animals.
