Racing For Shade
Yesterday was hot, hot, hot, so we spent most of the day inside in the air conditioning. The rare times we ventured outside were for taking care of business.

Back Away From The Brush
Despite his scruffy looks, the Little Prince emphasizes one of his most important rules—do not dare touch him with a brush.

Serious Siberian Sentry
With his bouncy ways and need for speed, Landon isn’t generally known as a serious canine. He prefers having fun way too much. Monitoring the front of the house, though, requires a great deal of focus. When Hu-Dad looks up from his desk, this is often the sight he sees—Boom Boom not bouncing, but focusing on intruder prevention.
