Pugs – A Small but Mighty Service Dog

A few weeks ago my husband, mother-in-law and I went to our local county fair here in San Diego (previously known as the “Del Mar Fair”, it was a great day!).  As we were getting ready to leave I saw something that I had never seen before.  It was a Pug dog wearing its service harness [...]

Handsome “Ransom”

Handsom Ransom!  He is one very lucky boy.
Our brother and sister-in-law found him wondering the streets of their neighborhood about 2 years ago.  His owners could not be found, so they don’t know if he was lost or if he was abandoned. 
They took this lovable boy in and named him Ransom.  He is happy, easy going, [...]

Bailey loves to play dress up, although he said he would never go Trick-or-Treating again with Randi because she took all his candy!

Loyal Companions Come In All Shapes & Sizes!

Meet Penny. Penny is my niece Megan’s furry friend and loyal companion. I have never been around bulldogs before but this little cutie won me over.
