Grady is a six-year old West Highland White Terrier. His interests include table scraps, squirrels, and the neighbor's pick-up truck, the comings and goings of which he adamantly insists on notifying everyone within a half-block radius via prolonged baying fits. Grady also enjoys long walks to the lake. Should you encounter him upon the path, and attempt to shake his hand, he will scoff at you and lift his leg.
