{r.i.p.}

Walking out to the car this morning we saw this:
Someone killed a possum and we believe that someone to be Caroline.
Perhaps this is the offspring of the one-that-got-away.

The vet advised that we praise the dogs when they kill squirrels and possums.
that.just.feels.weird.

But we did and then we cleaned it up. I threw up a little in my mouth when it was shoved into the grocery bag. I say shoved because the thing was so darn stiff that it had to be shoved. It could not be delicately placed in the bag. Shoving was necessary. Shoving was required.

Let this be a warning to all possums and squirrels and rabbits (awwww... ) who enter our yard:
Our doberman will kill you.

And as instructed by our vet,
WE SHALL PRAISE HER FOR IT!
