Goldens Bella & Nietzsche play. They had such a good time together. Golden friendships were made here:)



Well I have been keeping busy with my boarding clients. As you can see the rewards are lots of love in return:) We are looking forward to the warmer weather but with that comes the MUD! Oh well the dogs love it!

Philly Zoo Fun In The Winter Months

Took some time out to visit the Philadelphia Zoo recently. Nice time and no crowds. Lots of animals out and when we got to cold we ventured in the buildings to visit the monkeys, reptiles and small mammals.

A new edition is the rain forest carousel. Beautiful carved animals.

Jada and her favorite animal on the carousel.



The Amur Tigers were playful and on the move.




Jada enjoyed visiting the petting zoo and brushing the goats.



The Red Panda looked up long enough for me to get a picture before returning to his nap.

Looking forward to the March opening of the new bird house at the zoo. We'll be back for Jada's birthday.

Dublin says "Don't forget me, Can I be a retriever" (the pug in the back ground)

Can you ever get enough retrievers?

Dakota's Siblings Looking for Forever Homes

If you have had the honor of meeting Dakota you know how great a dog she is. Calm, listens so well, playful, smart and pretty to boot. Well two of her brothers from this years litter are available. Both guys are gorgeous!

Thanksgiving Morning

Some of my friends and I hang out this morning cooking the turkey.
Kitchen supervisors from l to r. Jasper, Gracie, Bailey & Dakota. Milo in the background sitting in his crate waiting for a treat.

Labrador Lads & Lasses

Max on the left and Dakota on the right, our two yellow labs ride along as part of our "Float" in the Harleysville Holloween parade. The kids threw out candy and I threw out baggies of doggie biscuits to our furry friends along the way.



The yellows hang out. Lipton left, Max front right and Dakota behind him.


Dakota (Yellow Lab) drug in the big "stick" branch behind her that Max (Yellow Lab in Background) has tried to claim as his catch. Cooper (GSP) and Bailey (Choc Lab) admire the big stick too.
