😂🤣😂🤣 If not, she should have marra. 😂 So funny.
Bless him marra. Such a little warrior. Even in desperation he’s calling out to do the right thing. 😔
Indeed marra. And we have to do right by him when he's telling us. Just wish he could tell the time sometimes 😀
😂 We have to take the rough with the smooth marra. They give us so much joy.
Thanks Mick and so well spotted. It really does. Yeah but if Alfie jumps up on the bed you don’t end up smothered marra. 😂 Bless Alfie. He can do no wrong in my book. Do dogs get swollen prostrates when they get old…
