Hallmark Book!

You can now find my second book, Barking Up the Family Tree, in Hallmark stores. Hallmark has published the work with a new title, Tails of Friendship. The book includes a nice gift page and on the newer printing you can even add your own picture and text. The only other differences from the original are this version is a bit smaller and a bit less expensive. Take a look next time you're in a Hallmark store or at their online store.

What kind of dog is that?

A new company is taking the mystery out of being a mutt. For $50 and a swab inside of your dog's mouth, Metamorphix can identify 38 different breeds of dogs. People have seen many breeds in my dog, Payton, including: German Shepherd, Lab, Husky, and even Ridgeback. I think his mix will remain a mystery for now, but those interested in learning more about this test can read about it here.
