our new puppy- Muggins




Muggins is our sweet and furry new addition. She's our little peach I guess you could say. She was eight weeks when we brought her home. A lab- collie cross, she will grow and surpass Apollo's size by estimations.
The name Muggins has multiple meanings:
Muggins was the dog who accopanied Mary Schaffer on her travells as Banff National Park's first tourist
Muggins had a full time job as a canine canvasser for the Red Cross, having an independent route on the Streets of Victoria During WWI
Muggins is defined as a simpleton; silly person
There are also Muggins versions of Dominoes and a rule in cribbage



I have quickly realized my potential to become the bag lady, how many other dog owners notice their coat pockets and purses contain plastic bags and doggie treats?
