    my girl

    I took these today while she was running around in the yard. She's wearing a rock climbing harness so we can help her stand up when needed, help her climb stairs, and help her walk when needed. It's the best harness ever. It supports her entire body. Her degenerative myelopathy hasn't...

    So, my little guy Murray freaks whenever my adult dogs start barking at some thing. Murray will run for cover and try to hide when they bark. He does the same thing outside when he hears dogs barking in the neighborhood. Any ideas on how to help him over come this fear?

    New iPad question

    I got the iPad 3 about a week ago and love it. I'll be getting a new cell in the next month or so. My question is what I would be missing out on if I went with a non apple cell phone. I really like the new Samsung Galaxy III. Would it really be of any benefit for me to get an iPhone also?

    New puppy, Murray

    We went back and forth over pure bred vs. mixed. We both decided that a rescue/rehome was the way to go. So, we got this little guy from a military family who's getting ready to PCS over seas. They wanted to find him a good home while he was still young, we couldn't pass him up. He's such a...
