Hey Luna!
ReplyDeleteWow, thanks so much for giving me the news! Basically, I pee on the newspapers in this house, so yours is the only news I can get. BOL. Congrats on your big award! Woohooo. The value of any place would go through the woof if pooches were allowed in.
Grr and Woof,
Sarge, COP
I just love your Newsy Mondays. I think EVERY place should allow PETS.

I live in a college town so we have lots of rentals and people move pretty frequently. Most dogs I know of that need a new home are because they cannot live in the new place someone has moved. It is so sad to me, but I would live in my car before I'd give up my dogs.
