Boxer Foster #1: Longhorn
UPDATE: Longhorn was adopted on January 26th, 2014! I got to meet his new mom at Adoption Day the week before. He’s gone to a loving home and I couldn’t be happier for him. Jairy has graciously allowed us to be foster parents with Austin Boxer Rescue (ABR). This is mainly because he wants to […]

Being a do-it-yourselfer, I planned and prepped the whole shebang. It was an endeavor but I wouldn’t have had it any other way. I guess I kind of consider myself […]
