Pups and dogs draw attention Apparently the change in my column picture has drawn a large amount of attention. I will try to answer a few of the questions that have come to me. One repeated comment seems to disturb a few. The question is phrased as follows: "Your picture doesn’t look like you, you are not smiling, and I liked your other picture!" Answer: The dog was wiggling while hubby took our picture; I was concentrating on holding Bella toward the camera while she was moving to and fro. It is hard to smile while holding a dog still. Actually I really do look as good as I did 20-plus years ago. How do I know? My husband repeatedly tells me how good I look and how pretty I am so I know he can’t be wrong. Am I talking vainly? Hmm, I’ll think that one over before I answer. Next question: "Why do you want to take care of a dog after rearing a passel of children?" Okay, so I will make a true confession. The dog really belongs to our daughter num- ber one. We are the grandparents of Bella whom we take care of when daughter number one has to go somewhere without a dog. Bella reminds us of the rearing our chil- dren during the ‘50s, ‘60s, and ‘70s and beyond. The difference is that we can spoil Bella and then return her to mother. Bella brings me a lot of atten- tion which allows me to laugh a lot and in some instances I am ever grate- ful for her actions. For instance, I was made to know that Mr. Minch did not see Bella as competi- tion to Murray Clyde. You are right Mr. Minch, Bella and Murray are definitely not matched in size or pedigree. He is rather a handsome dog however and Bella is a beauty, you know it could be love at first sight between them. Perhaps letting them look at the picture of each in the Daily News of would be enough romance. Anyway, I am only the Grand- mother of the Bella. Pat Gleason was kind in remind- ing Mr. Minch not to heckle me. Mr. Minch was kind to let the pub- lic know that I can stand up for myself. Yes, I can stand up for myself. I have spent a few years debating off and on with my hus- band and he still repeats sweet nothings in my ear. As for Murray Clyde, I convey a message from Bella; she is also insulted by Mur- ray Clyde’s lack of interest in her as she is definitely the Belle of the dog ball. Carolyn Barber This column is dedi- cated to a little bit of fun during these hard eco- nomic times. Are we through with hard times? I don’t think so, A few more hard deci- sions to make, A few more prayers to ice the cake, A few more pets to sooth our souls, A few more patching of some holes…, Will feed carefully a sense of humor, Will move to stop unwanted rumor, Will generate some scoops of hope, Will keep us safe, we common folk. Barker Fields, Feb. 16 Carolyn Barber has been writing her column in the Daily News since 1992. It appears on Saturdays. She can be contacted by e-mail at hur- car@yahoo.com.
