Junie B. Downing


We are happy to introduce the latest addition to our family. Our new puppy, Junie B. came to live at the yellow house last Sunday. Our sweet girl, is of a litter of four left in a box, under a tarp on a 90-some degree day, in the rain. (do I even need to comment on that?)

We had been thinking about a dog since the loss of Murray months back. After weeks of Petfinder.com surfing, when I saw this face, I knew she was the one. She and her brother Johnny were named for the singing Cash couple. The name morphed perfectly into one of our most favorite book characters.

I'm not completely sure of what she is or how big she'll be.


I am completely sure I hope she loves me, almost, as much as Murray did.

I am l-o-v-i-n this little pup, and her story makes her even more endearing. Thank you for the awesome fundraising wing fest! We had a great time and I hope you raised lots of funds for Mr. Yellowhouse's Make a Wish.
I have to talk to you about the peaches you posted about-they look so good...

I am so happy for you! She is so cute. Is she a gild chicken puppy?
