Do your hobbies include running, barking, and scratching?
Dogs love to walk – ask ‘em. They’ll tell you. To them, being cooped up in a yard or house all day is just like you itching to get out of the office at the end of the day. Think about it, they literally ARE in the doghouse most of the time. Besides, you don’t [...]

This deal is absolutely too sweet to pass up.
Don’t you get tired of dressing up to go everywhere except your clothing optional beach resort vacation? Movies, restaurants, church, bacchanalian trigonometry orgies…they’re all the same.
