He came to me as a rescue who’d been abused & abandoned. He had to be left home for a week in Jan ‘23 while I had the chinese flu & pneumonia. Even though he was 13 & had some underlying conditions, I can’t help but think he felt ‘abandoned’ a third time. It’s been too quiet for the past several months but I didn’t want to adopt then have to place a dog in boarding so soon after adoption. It’ll be another couple of months before I’ll feel able to adopt

    Dan Dan the professional flat deck man. I don’t know how the drivers do it today. Every where you are able to park there is not much available after 7 PM. Plus everyone parks on top of each other. It’s funny , no not really, they can put a man on the moon but not look after the guys that keep the economy rolling along. Truck drivers should be treated so much better. Garbage food at many truck stops. I would love to build a proper truck stop, where you get home cooked meals, ample parking, clean rest rooms and showers and the driver gets the respect he deserves. If ya don’t drive a rig, can’t come in, and if drivers don’t respect the place they will be refused entry. Daniel your Pete and the Dorsey look fantastic. Your one professional cowboy.
