Serious Thoughts

Sometimes I wish I were different. I am by nature a sober and introverted dog. Perhaps because I never had much affection  in my early years, I do not expect much now. I have been at Asherpark for over a…

All For Me

This is my mug shot from the shelter. They took it right after I was arrested in September 2009. I was kinda skinny, had pussy eyes and lots of fleas. Here’s another picture of me taken in the summer of…
