Merry Christmas 2018
We waited until after midnight to go to bed in order to wish each other Merry Christmas, but our canine companions were ready to go to bed already so we followed Prince’s example, and it was lights out for my pack.

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….
