OK - thanks, Anneliese. I will be giving the shot on Monday and I will let everyone know how she reacts. Doppa had good therapy yesterday. 150 children from the Catholic Home in Charlotte came to the farm to see the buffalo but Doppa was the hit of the trip. We got her out to let the kids see her and they couldn't resist getting closer and closer. They were very well behaved kids but she was just too irresistible. Pretty soon they were hugging on her and rubbing her and just totally showering her with love. She just soaked it up and was a perfect angel. At one point there were multiple kids hanging on her neck, rubbing her sides or just leaning against her and she just lowered her head and was resting it on one little boy's chest - he was beaming. They kept saying she felt like a teddy bear with her long coat. I have her in a trace clip and one little girl who obviously knew something about horses gave a lecture on why she was clipped that way - it was really cute. I think it was therapeutic for all of us after the trauma at the beginning of the week. Of course, I didn't have my camera but some of the adults that were there did and I hope one of them will get some copies to me - if they do, I will share. Laree
