Our long-time volunteer Kate W. in Missoula, who adopted blind Luke from us a few years ago, recently emailed me this:
"I just thought I'd share a funny story and let you guys know how spoiled this dog is!
So I'm sitting at my desk trying to do some homework and Luke has ants in his pants. He keeps walking up to me, wagging his tail (his whole body wags with it), putting his head on my knee and just pestering me to pay more attention to him than to my homework.
It doesn't matter how long I walk him or how hard we play, if I'm sitting at a desk trying to get something accomplished, he can't stand it and feels the need to constantly distract me!
So what do I do? I drop what I'm doing, load him up into the car and take him to Petsmart to pick out a new toy! Pleased he is, he got a new bone and a duck and met a puppy. Now I'll get some homework done!
I love this boy!"
A few minutes later, she emailed me the above photo. Kate wrote,
"I got this funny shot after I sent the email to you about Luke's new bone and duck. He's definitely pleased with the evening's events!"
I should hope so!

Only THREE Days Left — Still No. 1 — But That Iowa Group Has Moved Up Fast!
Please keep voting for the ranch every
day in The Animal Rescue
Site/PetFinder's Shelter Challenge. Thanks
to your votes, we came in third nationwide and won $3,000 for the
animals in the previous contest earlier this year. Now we have a shot at No. 1 and the
$20,000 grand prize in the current contest! Enter
"Rolling Dog Ranch" and our state postal code, MT for Montana,
and it will bring up our listing so you can cast your vote. Please ask
your family and friends to vote, too.
You can see how fast the rankings can change, so we really need an
extra push in the last week of the contest to hold that No. 1
spot. It ends on December 20th, so we're in the home stretch — and $20,000 for the animals is in sight! Thank you!
