Dear Friends,
Happy ALMOST Halloween! Are you ready for Halloween? I am looking forward to a quiet holiday, with extra treats and happy music when the trick or treaters come by. I like children, but don't like loud noises at the door, so I stay in the bedroom all safe and comfy on Halloween night.
When I'm not playing, walking, snuggling, and blogging, I like to collect dog theme vintage cards, photos, postcards, and images. I would love to share some vintage Halloween dogs with you today.
