Gathering for family scripture time brings everybody together, sometimes in a heap. Our dog knows our habits and can be found in the middle of them, although most often he is irreverent or distracting in his behavior. Chewing a rawhide noisily during the prayer or pushing his head under hands that hold scriptures to ask for attention, this dog is no saint. His devious attempts to stow away in our cars to go for rides have almost been the death of him in the summer months, hiding in a hot car. We reward his loyalty with a life almost free of baths, a yard to run around in, and the same dog food every single day.
