    Oliver is wondering what's going on

    "Hmmm...I know these beds are too small for me." "Since when are there toys in the house I'm not allowed to play with?" "And then there's Mom, how do I say this nicely...she's taking up a lot more of my space in the bed." That's right Oliver, you're about to get a baby brother & a baby...

    Apparently Oliver was opposed to laundry day today. He loves sprawling out on the bed and refused to leave, despite the fact that it must have been warm for him with all the blankets on him. He stayed there for a while looking at me like I was the funny one Here is an unrelated one I also...

    Dogtoberfest 'Celebrity' Dog Wash

    We took Oliver to a fundraising dog wash here in town that raises money for our local animal hospital and their blood bank. The suggested donation is only $10 but of course we gave more because Oliver is more than a $10 dog wash kind of dog. They have volunteers from the animal hospital work...

    Newfy golf club covers?

    Does anyone know where I could find a Newfoundland golf club cover? I thought I had seen one on line in the past but that was before my husband took up golf. Now that he is a golfer, it would make a great gift but I can't find it anymore. Thanks for any help or advice!
