Hi, my name is Marika!  Why am I the Luckiest Mutt?  Is it because I was nearly on death's door with a whopping case of Kennel Cough, right before being rescued from the Humane Society?  Is it my vacation homes in Aspen and Boulder?  Is it that my owners have always treated me like their hairy, 4-legged offspring with a speech impediment?  No, no, and no!  It is the unremitting love I get from my little brother.  Now...just as soon as I can figure out how to use a mitt, I will play catch with him...
