Carol and Jim with Grandpuppy Visit Betty

Taking a break from rabbits, we'll feature a cute puppy today.

Hi, my name is Duke!   I am a 9 week old Corgi puppy.   

Have you ever seen a puppy car seat?  I am in it!

Carol is my grandma, my mom is Kendall.   

Jim is my grandpa.

Grandma Carol and grandpa Jim take me to visit Betty.

Hi, Betty.

I am happy to get to go have fun.  

Grandma Carol loves me.

Grandpa Jim let me have a head ride.

I have so much fun, it's exhausting for a little guy like me.   I need a nap.
