Tim, Goodboy and Tiger Kitty are all still waiting for a good home! Hi all, my name is Baxter. I am a one year old male Beagle. I was found wandering around following my nose. I am very nice walking on a leash and I know to sit. I prefer to go potty outside so it is a little hard …

I can’t remember a Thanksgiving with such nice weather, as the one we just experienced. It was perfect weather for those who traveled, which in years past, hasn’t been quite as nice. I remember, while working at O’Hare Airport, many folks celebrated Thanksgiving with a turkey sandwich, sitting in the lobby waiting for news on their flight home. I hope …

Someone made a lot of money during the campaigning, and I’m sure it wasn’t me or any others more deserving. What a waste of dollars. What will they talk about next on Facebook or Twitter? The next event to plan …

Hi, My name is Tim. I am a one year old male Husky/Lab. If you love long leisurely walks and ear scruffs I would love to share my life with you. I am starting to feel a little sad just hanging out here with little companionship. I light right up when someone can spend some time with me. I am …

We are now into November. By the time some of you read this, we’ll know who our President will be for the next four years. Some of us will be elated, and some of us will be packing our bags and making plans to relocate out of country. I will be extremely elated, because I won’t have to put up …
