Sam And The Wonderful World Of Football


Here's Sam the Chihuahua with a pair of different types of footballs: an Adidas rugby ball that I bought recently at a liquidation sale in Medford, Oregon, and a ball used for Australian Rules football purchased on eBay several years ago, from a seller in, I believe, Idaho Falls, Idaho.

Sam And Tony Enjoy Each Other's Beds


A sister of mine has come up from Reno, Nevada with her two dogs, Tony the Lhasa Apso and Sam the Chihuahua. Here they are, laying in each other's beds.
