I’m doing really good at housetraining (all things considered). My foster Mom says I am a Velcro dog, I’m not sure what that means, but I like the sound of it. Once I warm up to you it’s a whole new ball game though. That’s because I never got to meet many people before. When I meet a new person, I just want to run in a corner and hide. You might think I sound like a confident girl, but the truth is I can be pretty shy – especially around new people. I’m a real smart cookie too –a silly door or gate can’t keep me out of a room – I will try to find my way in, over, or around it.

Thankfully, since CEBR came to my rescue, that’s all changed and I’m no longer lonely. I had so much love to give, but I didn’t know who it would be for.

Like all stories, high-school dramas might tackle similar universal themes, but they can still suffer when they’re bogged down by the specificities of a time gone by.īased on the 2000 Jerry Spinelli novel of the same name, the newest Disney Plus original movie Stargirl suffers from trying to make its outdated plot relevant in 2020.

The ‘equine Gerald’ and later a horse called Geraldo were nominally owned by Reginald and sold when, after a win or two, they proved disappointments.

His father, Reginald, was a front man for Teddy Estershank, a professional punter who was banned from being a licensed trainer or registered owner of horses by racecourses around Melbourne. G erald Murnane was named after a racehorse. ![]() |
