Mutt I hound you with these doggone pics?

When I began this blog it wasn't my intention to focus so much on archival animals, but they are so darn fun and cute, I just can't resist!

As you may guess from that adorable fellow pictured above, today's entry will feature some of man's bestest buddy. Although I'm a notorious crazy cat lady, I do have a soft spot for these fuzzy-wuzzy squee-worthy companions.
