As I first started to read this excerpt from The Dogs of Bedlam Farm, I didn’t know who the author was. There was one point in the written piece where I began to have an inkling, but it wasn’t until I got to the very end that I was able to confirm it.
The author is [...]

Kelly — In Memory
I met this beautiful girl almost a year ago, and cannot believe that she has yet to find her forever home. Poor Kelly has been in foster care for far too long, and since almost all of the adoptable rescue dogs featured in this blog over the past months have found new [...]

Cyber is available for adoption through Bullies In Need.

Heartworm season is upon us once again, and this coming weekend — the long Victoria Day weekend — is when the preventive measures begin.
From my Sentinel pamphlet:
Heartworm can be fatal
Heartworm disease is spread by mosquitoes.
Male worms are 4 – 6″ long and female worms are 10 – 12″ long.
