Ruger

 The last time Matt came to visit, he brought this guy with him.

  His name is Ruger.  Somebody I know was quite happy with Matts decision to bring him along.

 

I think this is where she was a little shocked that the ball deflated!  

 She loved playing with Ruger.  Cant you tell?

 They played tug of war.

 He looks pretty vicious here but he was actually very gentle. He seemed to enjoy their game of tug of war as much as she did.

 They had some nice conversation too.  I have no idea what all she was telling him.

 She made sure he got enough to eat and drink while he was here.

Matt can bring back Ruger any time he wants to.
