At last, a day for us! Momma promised us a special treat tonight, but she didn't say what.
ReplyDeleteSome excellent ideas you have listed to celebrate National Dog Day! Mom told us "Happy National Dog Day" as soon as we opened our eyes this morning. So I rolled over so she could scratch my belly so I could tell if she really meant it. And she did of course. About your legislation against hair stealing, this could pawsibly come up during the debates! We would totally support making it optional with the doggie having the final say in the decision! Thanks for your ideas!
