They only come out at night! They hide inside, so they can’t be seen during the day, like the vampires they are. They don’t suck your blood, but they will make you bleed when they strike.

They will leave you in fear, because they have violated your space. They’re easy to spot walking around late at night in dark colors and/or with co...

Her name was Ollie (short for Olivia), and she came into our lives seven years ago in the summer of 2012. She was half poodle, half shih tzu. She was small, blonde, puppy-like and absolutely adorable. We saw her picture on the Odessa Virtual Yard Sale site, immediately fell in love with that face and set up a time to meet her. We had tossed around the idea of getting a dog, though such a small one had never entered our minds. But once we met Ollie, we were hers. There was no...
