Well, it looks like Lucas found another critter while being outside today. He started digging really quickly and with great intensity until he pulled back with a big fat gray mole in his mouth.

Today we met up with a friend (Deadra & her dog Ruby) @ the dog park in St Joe. I was very excited and a little anxious to see how Lucas would react to the other dogs. He did fine with his new friends Bo & Annie. They played, barked, & chased until they were [...]

This morning was nothing unusual for us, we lazily got up and then started walking the dog. Margaret picked the path that we were going to walk this morning and on the way back towards the house is when it happened. There’s this one dog that’s usually tied up in the front yard while it’s [...]
