Quinton plays Piano!


Alexandra,

I hope you're doing well. I've been meaning to send you a video clip of my Mom's youngest puppy, Quinton. He's grown into quite a big, handsome boy. But . . . the funniest thing is . . . all on his own, he's learned to play my parent's piano. None of our other dogs can do this. Quinton just started to do it all on his own one day, and now, he puts on a show about every day.
I thought you'd like this.
Our pups, Gibbs (Gilbert) and Linny (Olina) are doing well. Linny just turned two on 29 Mar. My Mom's other dog, Gunny (Gunther), is very happy and healthy too!
I hope your family is doing well.
S.
