It's hard to lose a long-time companion (disregarding your clearly poor taste in rats), but at least Betsy has you! It's great that you're providing her socialization she needs. I especially like the black-colored animals.

When someone posts a picture of a dog, I'll confront them with mine as a rule.

If it's not obvious, Kodi is a wolfdog hybrid. He's a product of accidental meeting between a captive wolf and farm dog. If you're interested to know that tale... The farmer captures the wolves that came too close to the communities and relocate them. But he needs a permission and ideal time for relocation so he has to hold the wolves in his pen in meantime. Then Kodi appeared. He lives with my parents so I miss him though I visit them often.
