Scared for Life

Apparently losing Merlin has had a lasting effect on Ellie. Over and over again she has taken it upon herself to go after Merlin, taking his leash with her, when he runs away (to play with other dogs at the park). She also seems to need to know where Merlin is whenever we're at home and calls out to him every now and then. She has certainly learned that, for what ever reason, it is very critical to keep track of this dog. I think it's wonderful that she has decided to help take responsibility to make that happen. And it makes me laugh.
