Good Evening Folks. Today I went to visit Craig from Furtography to finally pick up his latest book
'Dogs of the World'. I have a personally signed copy πŸ€—. Craig has taken some of the most memorable pics of our animals over the years. He is an award winning photographer with so many accolades to date. Our lot and myself can't wait to see all the doggys in this book. So if you want a copy, head over to his page to order. This book would make a fab Christmas gift too. 🎁. Craig will also be holding an exhibition next month in town where you can buy beautiful acrylics and prints of the dogs pictured in the book. Stay tuned for info πŸ€—

"Evening folks Starlet here". What very sad news to hear today that one of our faves 'Dolly Parton' has passed away. Mum saw Kenny Rogers in concert and really wanted to see Dolly too one day she said πŸ₯².

Well today is 'International Dog Day'. So our tribute is too 'Miss Dolly'. We also had a chicken named Dolly. Although she was a ginger πŸ™Š. We just poured a coldy and we are looking through Dolly's amazing book 'Behind the Seams. My life in Rhinestones'.

We can't accompany this post with the song '9 to 5' cos Mum said Dolly should have sung '9 to 3', three days a week at most. So it will be one of her other favourite Dolly songs πŸ”₯ πŸ€—
