Yesterday, she practically galloped on the Buffalo sidewalks, but after a night hanging with our pals Maureen and John Hurley, Maisie became so attached to her new surroundings, she did what she does best: stopped. Four paws cemented on the ground. Would not budge. Not even to tour an Olmstead parkway.
But back at the ranch, she thrilled at the sight of the treadmill. Maybe one for her next birthday? Don’t think it will fit in the van.

Who wouldn’t love Buffalo? I hope you have a chance to experience the waterfront. Lots of great pathways for Maisie, you and Bill to explore.
