Emily, my pretty new Boxer, was an unclaimed stray in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. BMLer Cathy Sylvester thought (correctly, I might add) that Em is the perfect girl for Toby and me. The only problem lay in the fact that I live in Wisconsin. Members of the Boxer Mailing List and a couple of other Boxer lovers kindly organized a CUR run. The pictures on this page were taken as Emily made her way to her new home.

...and found time to pose for a couple of pictures.
