I am not a winter person. There are lots of people who look forward to snow, skiing and sledding but that’s not me. Spring and summer are seasons that motivate me to be outdoors, swimming, the beach, boating, the list goes on and on.
These cold, often grey days of winter find me warm and cozy inside working, exercising and reading a book along with a cup of tea. I’ll invite friends to the house, hoping they prefer the winter and then I don’t have to bundle up and go outside. But bundle up I do daily, layering clothing to insulate me from the weather and the guilt trip my dogs elicit by whining for a walk.

Little ones longing for love
Jack Russell Terrier, Kit, was tearfully surrendered in November. Kit is an action-packed, intelligent guy hoping for a loving household with owners who possibly have Terrier experience. He is an energetic 10- year-old who will keep you entertained with his fearless doggie bravado. Kit would do best with active adults who are available to give him the attention and exercise he longs for.
Small-scale Spunky's eyes plead with you to give him a chance. He craves love and attention and it shows. Sweet Spunky was found as a stray but he makes it obvious he doesn’t want to stay that way. This handsome gentleman has a lovely short white coat and a distinguished white mark on his forehead. By giving Spunky a home, you'll gain a devoted, affectionate pal who only has eyes for you.
