Last month, I had the incredible privilege of giving the commencement
address at Colorado State University. Click HERE if you’d like to see video.

Charlie’s become more social and loving the older he gets, which is the opposite of what I expected to happen. He often plays outside and will suddenly race in to where I sit at the computer and put his paws on my knee to say Hi!!! and then run back outside. One afternoon we were up at MC’s and at some point I told Charlie to sit (because I’ve taught him to sit and Charlie knows he must sit before he gets treats). MC almost fell off his chair – he couldn’t believe I had taught a coyote to sit. But it’s as much Charlie as it is me – Charlie’s just so good. He’s such a happy being and wants everyone else to be happy too.

The biggest event of late is that Charlie’s dog teeth are coming in. He has eight adult teeth now. When I noticed he was growing big teeth I started looking in his mouth fairly often because it’s just amazing to see them poking through; to see what teeth are new, which are loose and which have fallen out. And every so often I see a tiny baby tooth just dangling, and I pluck them out and now have three of his tiny coyote baby teeth.
