About Kim
What a great organization.
I saw the collie…so pretty! I don’t generally use those brands either, sometimes Milk-Bone. We shop at a local feed store and we buy the premium food for Simon, but I really thought that is was great that by ordering a free DVD they donate to what seems to be a worthy cause.
Does this qualify for the carnival? It’s tomorrow right? I always ask and you say, “I’ve got it already”, but I don’t like to assume!
I don’t use any of those brands, but clicked over to see what it’s all about, anyway… and the first thing that pops up? A Collie. A rough tri, just like my girl Tess.
