It Is Pawsitively Lovely To Meet You
Living with dogs can be challenging, but this site is designed to remind you that you are not alone. Whether you are an experienced furry friend owner or you are just realizing that fur on everything is just a part of your life now. I welcome you to come read, laugh, and yes sometimes cry in frustration with me. My name is Shannon Harvey and I have had my two puppers for almost two years now. I own Shadow, aka Crackhead, who is a GSP/Lab mix; and Chaos, head of security coming in at 75 lbs of Rottweiler and Airedale Terrier. I have really been through it all with these two and I am so excited to share our journey with you.
