Pet lady: That's my role in the Miami Herald newsroom. I've been here since 1989, during which time I've had 11 dogs, a ring-necked parakeet, a chicken, and a lizard named Lance. At the moment, I have four dogs, one step-dog, and two cockatiels. A native New Yorker, I came here from Louisville, Ky. I'm a graduate of the University of Arizona, and had a Nieman Fellowship at Harvard in 1988. I have written 309 stories containing the word "dog" in the past 20 years.

Got an email from some folks who identify themselves as "activists working in Hallandale to try and pass an ordinance to discontinue any retail sales of "companion animals". This ordinance has been passed in four other U.S. cities and we would like to be the fifth.''
To which I say: Go for it!
They're holding a peaceful protest tomorrow, Saturday, noon-2, at "Baby Doll Yorkies," 614 Atlantic Shores Boulevard, Hallandale Beach. For more info, contact mich4na@msn.com.
