I opened another wonderful package sent from Bill Berry. In it was a book titled "Once In Love With A Puppy". I read the last page first. It brought tears to my eyes. Lee Netzler, a member of The Longmont Writers Club, the Dog Writers Association of America, and author of this fabulous book, had immediately found a place in my heart. I wrote Lee asking his permission to place his book here in the library for you to enjoy. As you can imagine, I was thrilled to hear back from him. Lee has, in fact, given permission for his works to be made available here for your enjoyment. Lee is also in the process of going through his papers and sending me more. So please, check back often for new additions. Lee, an extremely talented writer and lover of Scotties, is the winner of 5 DWAA Maxwell Medallions. I am sure you will enjoy the following, as these are absolute jewels.
