A few things.

.

.

To the Mexican store.  A look around.  Several things not found at other grocers.  Some items for regular menudo, a store made sauce, and a few odds and ends.

Before that a stop at the pound.  Mom looked at two particular dogs.  One an older yellow mix, the other a younger shepherd.  Both gals.  Still not sure, but I am letting her pick the shepherd.

Not for indoors.  But, we will get a cage for her, for really cold weather.  No loose living in the house.  And, only if mom can take care of her.  Considering one of those handle harness items, so possible mother can handle her.

She is a smaller gal.  If too she isn't full grown.  I will walk her myself.  That is part of the reason I wanted a dog.  BUT!  I won't guarantee walks.  Merely, when I feel like it, I will.  I won't be cajoled into it.  And, I expect her to buy a scooper for when I do walk her.

Not an ankle biter.  Check.  Not indoor.  Check.  The rest?  We will see.  Though, in mom's room, with the door shut, I suppose she can be let out of her cage.  But, one incident of cat chasing, and that will be that.

The allowance is her birthday present.  I think she will gladly take it.  Now to get food, leashes, chain, stakeout, bowls, toys, and else in time.  She really is a sharp looking pup.

A bit of work.  Not much, for me.  Mom did a goodly bit.  I had hoped to do more, but between the trip, and else, I still can't.  Feeling better.  Doing better.  But still in recovery.  Just the way of it.  Good night.
