After some serious thinking and having fun writing Dougal's letters to his foster family, I decided to start a blog for him. I have no idea if this was a good idea as writing isn't really something I excel at but pretending to be a dog and seeing the world from his point of view is really cool! So I thought I would share-please provide feedback as you all are the experts in blogging and I would appreciate hearing everything and anything!!
The first post is the first letter he wrote to his foster family where he lived for 5 months and loved them dearly. I have about a week's worth of letters similar to this one that I will post periodically throughout the week until I am caught up in present day.
Happy reading!

[quote=""Brenna""]Awww thanks Misfit! I realized after I posted and was taking the doggies for a walk that maybe I should have provided a little history on the Deputy before diving right in with his letters. Maybe before I post the next letter, I will remember to post an introduction.[/quote]
I'll look for it. My Google account got messed up in between email changes and commenting has been a bear, but I'll be reading

I was wondering why he left his foster family as he says he loved them, but presumably you'll cover this in your intro.
Love his blog
