So honestly, who do you think works harder??????

Look at these poor dogs!

So tell me, which would you rather be????

Pauly getting his ears rubbed after a tough day of agility!!! Carrie would move him and his head would just drop back and forth. Total lazy DEAD WEIGHT!!!


Kruz and Mad Dog taking up 1/2 the bed. NO FLOOR for these TWO!!!


Addie and Pauly crashed on the bed. I sure hope Addie doesn't have GAS!!

Seeker takes the floor, next to the air conditioner of course. It's been a tough day!!


Although he had a very long and trying day, Pauly wanted to show off his talents. He not only DQ'ed on Saturday, he wanted to tell the WHOLE world about it with the message below.

Yes, that IS what you think it is!!! VBG
