Festival

Festival oui, oui, oui
Festival non, non, non
Festival du la voyageur!

Happy Reading Week! I'm kicking my break off with some good girlfriends, Bear Flag vino (a red blend), Bailey's and coffee, and Festival. So happy and so needed.

Enjoy!

Winston

Since losing both of our family pets within the past year and a half, our home hasn't quite felt complete. B.J. and Bailey were little furry members of our family, that added to our family dynamic in a very special way. My parents thought it would be nice to have "no pets" for awhile. The only nice part was having zero responsibility– being able to come and go as you please, not having to clean up any messes. But, they've without a doubt missed the companionship.

There's something to be said about coming home from a long day, and having this four legged furball coming running to greet you at the door with the most excitement. So very happy to have their 'parents' come home to play. It always made my day, and I know my parents felt the same way.

When the puppy mill bust happened, we saw it as a sign to get a new pet. The Human Society would have an abundance of dogs needing homes. We called and they weren't quite ready to be adopted yet. We were fine waiting.... until we stumbled across an ad that caught my dad's eye.

He's always wanted a bulldog, so that's what we've been planning to get. We found an ad for a 5month old puppy, English Bulldog X... my mom thought we should just call to inquire. Turns out the man was going through a divorce, was working two jobs, pluss tattooing on the side just to help pay for his child. The puppy was locked up all day in a kennel, and again into the evening while the man went to his second job. Winnipeg's 'finest' kept calling about his pup, so he had kind of given up hope of giving his puppy a better home, until we came along.

Meet Winston!!







Such a handsome and loving boy!

The Adams clan has so much love to give and animals hold such a special space in our hearts, we are so pleased with our newest family member.
