Kaiser

KaiserSS2012-09

We adopted Kaiser (fka Dillon) a year and a half ago in February 2011. He is such a great dog and a very big important part of our life. He recently went boating with us and totally enjoyed it – and, of course, he had to inspect every single fish we caught. He also travels [...]
