Are Dog Owners Healthier People?
Yes, I do believe that most, not all, dog owners are healthier people than those without dogs. I remember a couple of years ago when my Alex was injured and unable to walk with me, I went out by myself to walk, and I still remember how boring it was. I never did it again. …

Happy Holidays 2017
I can’t believe 2017 is almost over. Time certainly flies and December is usually a blur. Some of us, ok some of them, like Abby and Cynthia will be busy decorating. Others will be traveling to spend these holidays with family. We, like many others, will be spending our time with cute but ungrateful children…
Abby Relaxing This Weekend
In the majority of pictures I post, you see Abby working, but does she ever take some time off? Yes, she does and I have plenty of pictures to prove that. See what I mean? My girl works hard, but she also takes plenty of naps in her favorite bed. Yes, she has a few beds….
