"The best laid plans of Mice and Men....", to quote Robbie Burns - such is Quinn's story. Quinn was supposed to come stay with us for a few months and be Brandi Murray's pick puppy from a litter between Kyan and her co-owned bitch Frankey. 
Sequin, as she was called at the time, came to stay  in January and was to be delivered in April to Brandi - ha! I grew terribly attached to her, especially since she reminded me so much of her father. Due to circumstances that worked out well for Brandi and I , Quinn, which means 5 in Latin (very appropriate considering she is our 5th dog) has decided to stay with her father and live out her life at Kyanite Acres, and is the best bed buddy next to her father.
