White Dog did not sleep well because of the howling canyon winds that persisted all night into the morning. As a result, she was too exhausted to offer much help as Steve began construction on the tortoise's new 4'x8' outdoor pen. Periodically, White Dog was coaxed out to check on the progress but her feedback was lackluster at best--a quick yip and then back into the house to nap.
