Cleaning the Coop

One thing I didn't bargain for with two dogs is the extra work hoovering and cleaning up...there's double the amount of hair, or in other words things get dirty twice as fast, even though we have Nobu and Claire eat bones and things in their cages. I remember the reason my Mum never got another dog after our darling dachshund Tanya passed away, and she said it was because she didn't want to have to hoover the carpets so often any more...

 I've taken over where she left off, it seems, mother to daughter. Here I am as a high school student with Tanya, and my mum playing with her as a puppy, around two or three years older than I am now. No peace for the wicked, as my auntie Flora would say.
