Bark Bark

I've substituted playing with children to playing with puppies - Jenny and Dougs cute doggies Barkeley and Goofy. They always say never work with children or animals.....how do I get a job playing with both???




Barkeley, the leader of the pack...










And Goofy, the very new addition from the puppy pound. A seven year old lab mix, Goofy was in the pound for a year and is a skin-and-bones nervous wreck right now. At somepoint his jaw has been broken so he has an eye tooth sticking out the right side of his mouth. He's totally afraid of everything, every little bump and bang, every person who walks in, every noise in the street sends him cowering in the corner and pacing. He'll get better, and already is getting there, but I ask anyone out there, how can you treat any defenseless animal like that?? Especially one as cute as Goofy. Nothing upsets me more.
