Yes, Tune is very loving and extremely lovable. She is a tremendous gift in our lives. Thanks to all of my dog-loving readers! :-)
Thanks again Riley for the sweet invitation and the adorable dog blog.
Riley told me to tell you “thank you” and that he “loved” all of the visitors today and hopes they’ll come back soon for more doggie tales.

Thanks for the link to Riley’s blog–I enjoyed it. And I hadn’t heard Tune’s story before. She’s very lucky to have you as her humans.

I’m there!
By the way, I love the wonderful shots of your dog, as of late!
