Jodi- the big lug is part of our family, he is really great and loves and protects Melanie. He loves and is friendly with all the kids in the neighborhood, most like him back. Most of the adults know Ralph form his daily stint in the front window looking sad and pathetic so when they don’t see him for a few they ask if he is okay. He is quite the Hound, We are his and he is ours and we are happy, ( bonus for knowing which Schoolhouse rock that is from)
