As if we also shared our house with Lady the cat, Lady the cockatoo, Lady the bunny, Lady the ferret and Lady the goldfish.
For the record, Lady is a pseudonym. Not that any of my dogs' names are any better, mind you, but each dog came pre-named and I felt bad about making them learn a new one.

On the subject of the Adobe Animal Hospital, did you see the article in the New York Times today about the mountain lion problem in Atherton? Those bozos. This area (Spankyland) has had many more sightings (and even incidents), the property values are pretty much the same here, but you don't see any complaints here. You rarely see deer in Atherton, but they are everywhere here. You need to live in the hills to really get the full animal kingdom experience.
