New Zipper in the Family
We love him.
Be Seeing You, Emily
Somehow our home became filled with old dogs. Flatcoats have a shorter than average lifespan due to a small gene pool that is riddled with cancer. In a few months, Linus and Patty will turn 7.

So we decided to take her in to get her started on antibiotics last night instead … Continue reading A Visit to the Emergency Vet and Why Billy is “Family Circus” Funny
