I do some work for the communications department at Maddie's Fund, and yesterday, I brought my 12-week-old Scottish Deerhound puppy, Rawley, in to meet the gang.
He, however, was not interested in meeting the gang. Nor was he interested in me for the four hours we were there. The minute we walked in the door, he tore into Maddie's Fund president Rich Avanzino's office, climbed into his lap, and never left.
I kept coming in to check on him, and every time he was either sleeping like a baby or snuggling and playing with Rich. I'm convinced they knew each other in a previous life or something.
The last time I came in, this is what I saw:

Such a vicious dog Rawley is.

Thanks for the cheery puppy fix! It brightens the gray Sacramentio afternoon Gina has been whining about.

Sorry meant to say Rawley is one sweet puppy but you probably could guess that. Such fun to fall in love.
