2007 Review

We want to wish all a barky New Year. Hope everyone had a pawtastic time bringing in 2008, the Year of the Rat. We have met a lot of pawtastic friends in cyber-paw space and found some relatives in too. We especially appreciate the frequent contact from our friends Tosca; Opie & Gomer; Charlie & Orable; Jake and Just Harry; Pacco; Bella, Eddie, Peaches; Tatum, Floss & Jez; and the Zoo (feline friends). There were a lot of other visitors, who barked at us once or twice. We hope they continue visiting us and take the time to leave their paw print behind in our guest book. Now for the Key West Collies the year in review 2007.
