Thanks.

We had Golden Retrievers for 20 years. The downsize will take a bit of getting used to.

It only took one morning of drinking the end of Mr ITW's cereal bowl milk to expect a treat to start each day.

Rescue shelters do a through check on applicants before sending a dog or puppy out to a forever home.

They are fearless. They have the attitude of very large dogs and think of themselves as the boss of everything. They have very large personalities!

I love them for that!

Hi I'm a Saber toothed tiger,... listen to me purr.... rub the base on my neck,... please.

You wouldn't have any cat nip by chance would you ?

Now I will have something to erase the images of that idiot resident of the WH. Deep breaths and puppy gazing!!! Works every time.

He could look at you as if to say, “just what do you think you’re doing Dave?”.

Hal looks like he's ready for anything - maybe even a space odyssey. :/
