DOUGAL AND REUBEN
"What do you think Dougal? You think this man Obama will fix the mess we're in?"
Reuben was visiting with his parents and when he saw Dougal get up on his chair, he wanted up on the other one! They're like a couple of old men.

WEE DOUGIE
Wee Dougie's had an operation on his back legs. The knee joints had parted company - first one leg and then a few days later the other one. The vet has tied the joints up and is quite confident that he should make a good recovery. We have his bed in our bedroom and when I woke up this morning I looked over. No Dougal! I threw back the covers and leapt out of bed nearly standing on the wee fella. He had pulled himself over to our bed and was lying near us waiting for us to wake up. He's 10 years old and this should enable him to live a long and agile life.
This photo is taken in here where I have moved his bed while I'm working.
