Wondering why we're called Bad Dog Ranch?
This is just one reason.
Here from Boost My Blog Friday Blog Hop, am now following - would love a follow back at Dropped Stitches.
ReplyDeleteSo you've got the Eastern Massasauga on your side of Lake Huron too? They're mostly found on the Bruce Peninsula here in Ontario. Makes sense to have a session for dog walkers... one doesn't want to have an unpleasant day running too close to one of them with the hound, either.
ReplyDeleteI love the pictures!
