    Evening folks! We are getting a new family member!

    I feel your pain of losing a close pet and joy of adding a new dog to the family. We lost two dogs to cancer this year. Can be tough to find another. We ended up adopting one a few months ago. Still looking for his friend to play with. Our deaf dog wants nothing to do with the new one. Enjoy...
