Well, it's been a long time since we have seen each other, I wanted to tell you how I am doing with my humans!

Since I arrived on the plane, I discovered my new family. My humans are mommy and daddy, and Tina. I also have five cats to play with, and a sister who is very much bigger than me, she is a golden retriever. Her name is Razzle. At first we didn't get along so well.... she used to get mad at me and try to eat me!! But I quickly showed her the rules of playing with a Coton, and she is very well behaved now!

I have lots of toys to play with, and my favorite game is catch! My humans throw me toys and balls and things, but I don't get to catch them so well sometimes, so I run like mad to pick them up and bring them back. Then, we play tug of war and do it again! HOW FUN!!

I get to go for long walks in town, where people always stop and pet me and tell my mommy they've never seen a dog as cute as me! Can you believe it? EVERYONE likes to pet me and tell me I'm cute! THIS IS GREAT! But I have to be careful because sometimes they get toooooo close and I'm afraid they might STEP on me! So I ask mommy to pick me up and she does.

Mommy takes me everywhere in the car, and I love to go for rides, sitting on her lap. I especially love to go for the long, long ride, when we get out of the car at the beach. I have many toys at the beach, like crabs and shells and rocks that I pick up and shake wildly, until they are calmed down! Then they become boring, so I FLING them from my mouth as far as I can, back onto the beach. Then, I love to run, run, run as fast as I can, back and forth at the edge of the water, and chase Razzle when she goes swimming.

Then after dinner and our walk, we go to bed. I love to sleep late with Daddy, because I can give him kisses on his whiskers in the morning. They taste SO GOOD!

Well, Sara France, I am so happy you sent me here! I have lots of fun and toys to play with, and mommy gives me good stuff to eat, like meat and fish and chicken and fruit. YUMMY! OH I almost FORGOT! I've learned how to SPEAK to my family! These are the things I can say: "I want a biscuit", "let's play", I want to go out", "pick me up", and they are almost completely trained to know exactly what I want! Don't they sound pretty smart?

Please tell Deano Pepe and Nanouk I dream of them often....and I will love to see them again one day.

Love,
