Golden saves his boy

January 5, 2010 dogs January 5, 2010

Goldens: Oprah’s Magazine

March 13, 2009 dogs March 13, 2009

O Magazine – January 2009Funny…..Erin Vey has a fantastic blog that my BFF Shawna turned me onto. I had the January 2009 issue of Oprah’s Magazine in my gym bag (Erin Vey found this ad while reading this O Mag at the gym…which is what I should have been doing, had I done my cardio) for three months and hadn’t actually read it yet! Shawna sent me this link and I was so excited I had to share. As you all know I save al the ads I see that have Goldens in them. Oprah has Goldens also.
