Double Dog Day: Lucky and Chase, the Border Collie Mixes (No Relation)

These two are good friends, but not relatives. In fact, Chase is the product of an overseas adoption (from Korea), and is still a bit skittish. Ironically, this meant that I got better pictures of him, because he was apt … Continue reading
