For humans, the chrysanthemum is a thing of beauty; for the dog, it's no more significant than a fire hydrant ... a convenient target.<br />David Lanoue<br />.<br /><br />Gabi Grevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16362456518166174106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-820047071744679108.post-48369372522625376162018-05-27T22:06:10.245-07:002018-05-27T22:06:10.245-07:00- shibin -
