Treat or Treat

Why do people say Trick or Treat? I think we should cut to the chase and ask for what we really want: treats, treats and even more treats. To heck with the tricks, that’s puppy stuff for Saint and me. We are certified service dogs, and we won’t be doing tricks for anybody. We talkedRead More

An Ode to Our Graduates, Our Friends.

Hi, friends! Saint here. We know it’s been a while. We’ve been doing well adjusting to our new normal with Mummy. Our summer felt longer than usual. We didn’t go out as much. But it was nice spending all that time at home working. One thing that we really missed, though, was getting to seeRead More
