A Tribal Council

You have a dog with a French name…. Please say you and Paige are not members of the poodle club?

As for Sailor Ripley, I heard rumours that he was deperately in need of a holiday.
Do you have a cat named Egalite and a bird named Fraternite?

Liberte is indeed a standard poodle, not one of those toy dogs. Poodles are most likely a German breed, though Libby was born in France and stuck with that name before we acquired her as an adult. I get all the social weirdness I need here, though, and have never felt the urge to join an official poodle club. (Paige and I have no personal connection that I'm aware of, BTW. You'll have to ask her directly about any suspicious fluffy-dog predilections.)

GGW: Good suggestion, but we have not acted on it–yet, anyway. I don't know whether there were littermates E and F, either.
