After a trip to our local county fair, we went home with something a little bit more animated than a stuffed carnival dog – we came home with a 3-yr.-old Beagle named “Duke”. He is a perfect fit to our family. Bailey loves having a brother, as far as we can tell.  You can see a few pictures of Duke & of Duke & Bailey together at my Flickr site, which you can get to using the link on the right. —————————————->

I’ll let you know about some other exciting news for our family in my next post, but for now, Duke is more than enough excitement to share!!!
