I knew the day would come with back issues -- it just happens with Dachshunds -- but I did not expect it this soon. Fortunately, she recovered quickly. Ever since Lucy's back surgery, … [Read more...]
How I Made A Dog Crate Table From An Old Piece Of Furniture
Since my new house is so small, I wanted every little spot to look good and have usable space. The plastic dog kennel I had just did not fit in. So I went on the hunt for something nicer.
