I had kept this under wraps for awhile. I have a new puppy–an English Border Terrier. His name is Jasper. He’s nine weeks old here.

You could not have picked a better dog. My wife and I have two, and we are mad about them. Borders are very active and need exercise. With winter coming on you will have to give him a workout at home. Sylvia (my wife) and I went to a dog show a few years ago and saw that one of the handlers was shining a red dot on the ground using a laser pointer ($15 at Fry’s) to keep his charge occupied. So, I got one and our pup took right to it, and this has been a continuing source of amusement for all concerned. She just LOVES to chase that dot. We adopted a 9 year old male, and he has shown no interest in chasing the red dot. So, my advice is to show Jasper the red dot while he is still young. When it is raining, this winter, I think you two will have great fun with this.
