We wish all our cyber-paw pals a barky New Year. We hope 2011, the Year of the Rabbit is kind to every paw. We are laughing as pictures of Elmer Fudd chasing Bugs Bunny dance through our head. For us 2010 was okay, but there were sad times and good times. Now for the Key West Collies 2010 recap.

We know the loss of your grandpaw was very hard.

Have a happy 2011.
