Coming Home to Carnage

Lately – Debbie has taken it upon herself to occupy Bit’s kennel. All well and good except for when I need to leave the house and she doesn’t want to get out. Debbie’s random kenneling began when I got really tired of hauling her stubborn ass out. At first food worked but then once she [...]
