If you have ever wondered what life is like with a Jack Russell Terrier, well... it goes something like this.
My husband is out of town, and he calls in the evening.
Dan: How was your day?
Sarah: Not bad. I need to run to (nearby town) F, though.
Dan: How come?
Sarah, in a perky tone: Well, I need to buy Gizmo a new kennel!
Dan: {{LONG pause}} Why do you need to buy Gizmo a new kennel? He already HAS a kennel....
Sarah: Well, unfortunately it no longer has a door. He chewed it off.
Deadly Silence.
Dan: What in the world did he do that for?
Sarah: I am not really clear on that. But on the upside, I think he must be feeling a lot better, since he had the energy to do that. So it's a good thing, really.
Dan: He sure is a character.
