Everything is Going to the Dogs

I love dogs! I have Miniature Schnauzers. This is my crew and me. I have Luthien Tinuviel (Lulu), Precious, Laurelindorenan (Lindy), and Elbereth Gilthoniel (Gilly). I’m a big Lord of the Rings fan, too.

Our fur babies are precious to us, and I often have them as part of the mommy and daddy’s weddings.
