The weather was beautiful here in DC yesterday. Â It was sunny and warm but not hot. Â In the shade, with a nice breeze going, it was actually quite perfect. Since it was so nice, I decided that the little guy and I should go for a walk. Â As I lathered on the sunscreen and tied the [...]

One that seems well-adjusted, one that will be easy to train, and hopefully one that won’t shed so much that you could make a quilt from its fur.  In choosing our dog, these were some of our basic criteria. And [...]
