		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Nellie's visit to my house is almost over.  She is going back home on Thursday.  I am glad we get to go for a car ride to meet her mom and dad, but I think I will miss Nellie.  She is starting to get used to me, and we played together for almost one second last night.  Catherine says we could play longer, except I pull on the toys to hard, and Nellie can not keep a hold of them. 
Sometimes I drive her nuts, but I know she loves me!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ My cousin, Nellie, is staying at our house for three weeks!  Catherine is going to puppy sit her while her mommy and daddy go on vacation.  Nellie is a maltese, and she is 5 years old and so cool!  She thinks I am a baby and gets scared if I run at her really fast, but I am doing better to give her some space.  Catherine is really proud of me and thinks  that maybe Nellie and I will even be buddies by the end of the three weeks.  I hope so, 'cause I sure love to play!  It is fun to have a puppy pal stay over!  Well, catch you later!
Love,
Allie]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Today I learned what summer is all about!  This is my first summer ever, and I think it's wonderful.  Catherine and I went outside this morning, and she put water in my blue kiddie pool and put me inside.  I was nervous, so I jumped out right away, but then Catherine showed me it was okay.  She put her feet in the water, and set me in again.  This time I was not afraid, and I walked around and drank some of the water.  Then, she started throwing my toys into the pool, and I played with them.  Sometimes I would jump in "save" them from the water.
Then, Catherine decided to do some work while I was playing, and she started weeding the flower garden and digging to get ready to plant flowers.  I decided to be a big girl and help her!  I am good at digging, so I dug in the dirt right next to where Catherine was digging.  Then, she went to pull weeds over by the bushes, and I went to help.  I got very dirty, so Catherine put me back in my pool to rinse me off. 
After that, we went to Wal-mart to pick out some pretty flowers.  We got purple, yellow, and white.  I wanted to help plant them in our flower bed, but Catherine said I could not, and she gave me doggie ice cream to eat instead.
Finally, we played with the hose.  Catherine sprayed me and got me all wet! I barked and ran around, but I didn't run away because I thought it was really fun.  I kept getting close to the hose to get all wet again!  Then it was time for a bath and a nap.  I am so tired!....but I think summer is a very good thing!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ This week I have done something really fun! I went camping with Rusty and Catherine. It is so cool! You get to stay outside almost all the time! There are so many sticks to play with, and at night, these funny looking things called raccoons come to visit. Catherine and Rusty taught me to bark and growl at them to scare them away.  It is such a fun game.  I love it when they come to play our game! We went for a walk, and a bike ride, and I have been very good.  Catherine and Rusty said I was  also getting very dirty, and they said I needed a haircut because I was getting too hot in all my black fur.  Catherine took me to a place where they gave me a shower, and a haircut.  I look pretty skinny now, but Catherine and Rusty say I'm still adorable, and I won't get so hot when I play outside. They did leave my curls on my ears though. Catherine was glad because she says they are beautiful.
Well, only another day of camping left! Wish us luck!...last night we had a big storm, and Catherine was scared... but I wasn't!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Coming to Live with My Rusty and Catherine

by: Allie Taylor

I was in Missouri as a little baby pup
I wondered where I'd go to live,
And who would pick me up.
I flew into Chicago just one other pup and me
Then Rusty and Catherine
Came to be my family.

Now I live at Allie's house
I have a special bed.
I play with lots of toys
And when I sleep they rub my head.
I have an elephant named Albert
And he's my favorite toy.
I sleep with him, and chew on him
He brings me so much joy.

Now that I live at Allie's house
I have a lot of friends.
We like to play at Grandma Claire's
I hope it never ends!
I like people pups and kitty cats
I play with them all.
And I'm brave like Laura Ingalls
So I jump, but never fall.

So if you want a special friend
That's cute and quite furry
Then make for them a special house
And be their family.
My Catherine says you won't regret 
The special place they'll fill.
And I say that I love my home
And guess I always will.

(Please give a pup a happy home.)
Love,
Allie]]></content:encoded>
