Scooby is my 13-year-old pug, and my constant companion.
By constant, I mean
constant as in breathing in my face whenever
possible and trying to get into my lap even if it's filled with computer.
He's been a major part of my writing career -----
how could I type a word without the continual "white noise" he provides,
cleverly disguised as snoring?  
In the right light,
you can clearly see the
family resemblance.
By the way, the one on the left
is the real wolf.
Scooby is my O.M. -- Official Muse, and as such, occupies a very
important position. So important, in fact, that fans have been asking to
write to him. So here's his address:
 scooby@romancingthewolf.com
You can talk to Scooby about himself (his favorite subject) or life in
Alaska, or pugs in general or EVEN about my characters -- after all, he's
been there for every word of every plot and takes full credit for my
success. He could be right....
Since coming to Alaska, Scooby has discovered his Inner Wolf. He
loves hiking the trails. He loves running the beaches even more ---
where he can eat herring eggs right off the rocks!  He's adapted
to being a "salty dog" on our fishing troller and enjoys gobbling
tasty salmon hearts.
Scooby, Official Muse
Lately, Scooby's also taken on the critical job of lookout,
warning us of the approach of grizzly bears as they
wander through our neighborhood in search of garbage.
He's so good at this job, that he can do it from inside the
house, curled up on his favorite pillow. Plus, just to keep us
safe, he really works hard to make certain that no food
items accidentally make it into the garbage cans. Now
that's dedication...
I should have known when I gave him his own email address that
it was only the beginning. Scooby now has a page for
all his friends!
