Tommy Druen: Dogs are good for people Previous Column: The lesson I have taken from 2021 By Tommy Druen Christmas came early for me this year. A couple of weeks before, my wife and I ventured to the small community of Cromwell, Kentucky and picked up an eight pound, bouncing baby boy . . . with black and white fur and a wagging tail. Our lives, and our floors, have not been the same since. Colonel is an 11-week-old sheepadoodle. Like many of us, he got a little fluffier over the holidays. Unlike most of us, he's right at double his weight from mid-December. And after his first visit to the veterinarian, we realized that the size we initially anticipated was a low estimate, as the doctor told us he should end up around eighty-five pounds. He's going to be a big boy. He is goofy and awkward, with his oversized paws getting him into precarious situations. He has nipped both our children, chewed on shoes, and attempted to herd the cat on more than one occasion. But he also likes to snuggle, take rides and looks pretty dapper in a bow tie. We may be only a few weeks into this relationship, but sometimes love at first sight really does exist. We're going to be best friends. I have been around dogs all my life. Some of my earliest memories involve a couple of my dad's beagles. Article continues... click title or click here to read whole article. 2021-12-29 10:22:38 | Comments | Printable version

We have signed the agreement with Lindsey Wilson College for additional usage around the track at the City Park at the Fairgrounds. We plan on a walking trail.
