<DIV>Thank you to all who provided me with ideas on how to decorate or not our
Christmas tree. I never had to worry about this with Lanna ~ our other
basset who is ATB ~ I believe we will definitely use the ribbon to hang
ornaments ~ if not this year ~ than next year ~ we may just leave the tree up
but undecorated for this year ~ I have learned so much from reading all of the
emails and I thank everyone for any/all posts you make on so many topics of
basset hound interest. Droool to all in need.</DIV>
