There is too much history behind my relationship with John & Alice to post here. Suffice it to say, they are wonderful dog lovers who have two of my 'kids', Chumley & Powder. They've lived in Greenwich Village for 30 years and we visited their neighborhood for brunch, a doggie visit, and walk in the park. John & Alice have been to our home in SC and we maintain close contact. It was wonderful to see them and to see the pups!!!
