Ron and Man's Best Friend
This is Ron:
I adopted Ron a couple years ago. I couldn't resist his personality (or his half-Bassett, half-Rottweiler looks.) He'd always been a pretty good dog-- except when it came time for a walk. I dreaded taking him out and dreaded even more Ron seeing other dogs on our walks, because he would get so excited he was almost impossible for me to control.
I entrusted Ron to Jon at Man's Best Friend for training and I couldn't be happier! Ron is pretty happy too, because he gets to go on lots more walks. I can't say enough good things about what they did for Ron and for me.
Recently, I went to my 25th high school reunion. I don't care much about aging but I'd be damned if my classmates were going to see my actual hair color! Tyler at Dragonfly Salon did a wonderful job on my hair. I highly recommend them (whether you have a big reunion to go to or not!)
I got my dogs (Ron and Miller) through Animal Action Rescue. They do good things. Normally I wouldn't do this, but there was something about this poor dog that got to me. If you can contribute in any way, AAR and I would really appreciate it!
