Let Me Introduce to You....

Miss Maggie Mae

She's a five month old white Schnauzer puppy.

Back in February of this year, we lost our precious salt and pepper Schnauzer, Sadie, to bladder cancer.  It's very hard to lose a beloved pet.  So, we took our time thinking about getting another one. 

As usual, we didn't pick the best time to do this, but, hey....that's the way we do things here at Patwork Garden.

But, she's a cutie.

She's already taken over the house.

She's learned to keep her distance from Willow, our neighbor's cat, who thought this porch was his.

She's made sure no deer come up on the porch.  Of course, there now is wire to make sure no dog goes out into the unfenced yard.

I think maybe she'll fit in here pretty well.  She won't be that lovely white too often, though.  She likes playing in the mud in the fenced yard. 

We're never without something to keep us busy here at the

Patchwork Garden.
