COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL October 5, 2016 “Good Golly Miss Molly!” Join Us! as we wish Wayne and Kathy Kleckner a fond farewell on their new adventure!

Maddess, DMD FAMILY AND GENERAL DENTISTRY Brightening Lives One Smile at a Time 7A mannered dog,” admits Karen. “We adopted Miss Manners at eight weeks old, and she has never once chewed anything that she was not supposed to!” A puppy book they read said to purr-chase as many chew toys as paws-ible, so they did, giving Molly the opportunity to choose to chew on them and not on their home or shoes. They were trying to prevent what Karen’s sister’s dog did. He chewed the dry wall off their walls and all the chair legs! Molly never takes anything without per- mission. And she doesn’t beg for food. She won’t touch food or her toys on the coffee table. Instead she asks for them. It’s like she’s attended a fi rst class fi nishing school for canines. Molly is not fashion conscious about her rain wear, but she is discerning in oth- er ways. She hates rats! If she sees one, she goes ball-istic. The odd thing is that she knows the difference between rats and squirrels and won’t bark at squirrels. Molly is a funny character! When I am ‘play chasing’ her, she hops up onto Ste- phen’s lap with her ‘Save me Dad’ expres- sion. She’s also made friends with our new mail lady, Jen. Jen is brilliant. She carries dog biscuits with her and she gave one to Molly on her fi rst day on the job. Just like Molly’s astrology chart says she ‘...easily wins people affections.’ Now Jen ‘mails’ a dog biscuit, every second day, in with our mail to Molly. In astrology, Pisces is the water sign. Karen and Stephen’s dog, Molly, was born under this sign and exhibits many of its wonderful character traits. A Pisces is known for their easygoing compassionate nature, their desire to cater to and help others, and their gentle nature that easily wins people’s affections. This is Molly to a “T”. They are known for the affi liation with water sports, swimming and feeling at one in the water.
