    1. Thank you so much for your kind words dear Vicky, it’s our favourite time of year for walking and we love the earthy smells and changing colours. Hope you’re able to enjoy them too and please give Tippy a big pat from us all 🤗🧡🐕 xxx

    1. Thank you so much for your kind words dear Anne. The neck fleece offers protection from the icy wind and you can un-roll it to cover the head in blizzards and heavy snow. Amazing you have snow already! Stay safe and warm and a happy week to you too from all of us here 🤗💖🐕 xxx

    The Panhandle
    With Winds As Eta

    Grey Skies and
    Cold Winds At Beach

    Yet As Usual Now In Climate Change Summer Lingers in November..

    Yet at Least
    A Few Hot
    Chocolate Days

    And Cool The Gulf
    Away From More Storms North At Least
