I have a VERY stinky golden retriever! I swear, Bailey goes outside and rolls in yard delights just to make me mad. I'm not sure if she does this because she enjoys having a bath or because she loves being gross, but it drives me nuts. My son calls her...
Sometimes, I feel like my house is a zoo! Who knew a house with 2 adults, 1 child and a golden retriever could be total chaos? I saw the trailer for Fox’s Blu-Ray/DVD "We Bought A Zoo" and knew immediately it was a film my family would enjoy (and could relate to)! Also,...
