Praises of a Wife and Mommy

Happy Pawlidays from Kiah!!!   We wish you a very MERRY CHRISTMAS!!   Kiah is teasing you in these pictures with her serious face.  She is still learning to love herself when the camera is pointed at her.   (Ok she was mad at me because I put the elf hat on her!)  Thanks Chewy.com for sending Kiah some Victor Premium Dog Food in cans!   I was not paid for this review and all opinions expressed are 100% my own.  As you can see she ate it up quickly.   There was no stopping her for any more pictures once she started eating!  I had tortured her enough with the hat and making get her pictures taken.   Victor canned dog food is easy to open and appears very moist and easy to get out of the can.   So a case of 12 cans will run $28.99 on chewy.com!
