I haven't shed any tears over it. Vicky and I are very black-and- white people and everything we do is emphatic. It has been so rewarding these last six years, but our next steps don't include Tango.

And we didn't want to bring in a financial backer. Two people is enough, and Vicky and I are pretty strong-minded.

Vicky said she had been thinking about some changes, maybe not being so involved in the retail side of things. And I said that I had been thinking as well. If I hadn't had (son) Isaac, I don't think I would have considered leaving the business, but having had that year off as a mother had really made me think about whether I could, or wanted to, do both ? baby and business.

I see people in tears, not wanting to give up their dog but not knowing what to do anymore.

Lisa knows her way around Harrisburg, but she is not out of touch with the people in her district.

We've had hundreds of people waiting at stations but we just don't have enough room. We're doing everything we can ... but the numbers are just quite heavy.
