Duchess had a little pal named Bryan. Bryan lived across the street. Sometimes Whiskers the cat joined Duchess and Bryan.

It’s handy if you can enlist your dog to pull your sled. I tried to persuade my dog Duchess but as I remember the snowfalls in the 1940’s, Duchess wasn’t too enthusiastic about pulling my sled. We had good fun though in those heavy snowfalls.
