I know I am really cute, because everyone tells me that ALL the time, but I couldn't figure out why every time I went out to go potty, my parents always go out with me. Didn't they trust me to do my business? Did they think I was going to run away from this wonderful place? I DON'T THINK SO! So what was it? Then, I heard dad tell mom to stay within a close distance from me when I was out because he had heard two OWLs talking to each other. Dad had looked up the hooting sound on something called "the internet" and said it was a GREAT HORNED OWL. I have never seen one, thank goodness! I guess they weigh 5 lbs., have a five foot wingspread, and catch prey up to 15 lbs. Since I weigh 9, I guess that is why they are worried. THEN, I heard them talking about something called a COYOTE! It's like a real meany that can climb fences up to 8' tall to get a cutey like me. And they don't just want to "Play." I'm glad my parents are so worried about my protection, and I certainly hope the parents of other small dogs don't take any chances with their loved one's safety either. Bye for now. Love and hundreds of kisses to all, Daphne
