Good morning friends, I have little doubt that you have heard about the disastrous oil leak in the Gulf of Mexico which began with the explosion of the Deepwater Horizon drilling platform 3 weeks ago. With oil escaping at an alarming rate of 200,000 gallons (or more)...
Hi everyone, I come to you with a heavy heart today. My bestest friend in the world, Maya, passed away last week. She was only 4 years old like me and taken long before her time by cancer. Maya was a Bernese Mountain Dog and we were best buds from the first moment we...
Hello world! If you've been reading me for a while, it will come as no surprise to you that I am a highly trained cardboard box killing machine. I've made no secret of the fact that I will take out any box that crosses my path for no apparent reason, other than the...
Good morning puppy pals! You might be starting to wonder just how large the farm is that we live on...with all these animals I keep talking about on here...but actually the sheep belong to someone else, these ducks I'm about to mention are wild, and basically we just...
