am in love with an old black lab.

Your Skippa is a beautiful dog; I am totally impressed you raised her from a puppy.
We got our Maggie at about 8? Rescue, no one really knows.

I swear, you could crop out the shadow at the lower left corner and re-size, adjusting the framing, and make it a christmas card. Frame your reddish-gold dog with green holly leaves and evergreen sprigs. Let the dog be the only color in the picture. Cuz the dog is GORGEOUS.

The Skippa is a handsome fella. The next pic I publish will be his air surfing in the truck. He's the back seat copilot that knows how to enjoy a 60MPH headwind.
