  • Reputable Breeders vs. Puppy Mills: How to Tell the Difference

    As many of you know, puppy mills are the one topic Molly and I feel most strongly about.

    With all the chaos going on at the moment, I felt like I had to make an article on this topic. Anything new and unfamiliar can be scary for humans, which is why so many people were quick to panic with the news of the coronavirus. Since I’m just a dog, I don’t know much…

  • Can Dogs and Cats Be Friends?

    It’s a common rumor that dogs and cats are sworn enemies. In cartoons and movies, the dogs and cats always seem to be plotting against each other. However, that’s not exactly real life. Sure, some dogs and cats can have their feuds, but for the most part, dogs and cats don’t actually hate each other,…
