Introduction

We (the owners) are siblings and each of us got a dog so we thought of creating one blog for the three of them together. It also happened that the positions of the siblings also fits nicely with age of the dogs.

The oldest of the three pups, Amber, belongs to Sharon the eldest. Followed by dawn, belongs to Betty. And Snowy the youngest of the three pups, belongs to our youngest brother, Vernon.

Also this blog will also be a record diary that we can use to track down the events and outings that we have been going and also about their daily happenings. So that we will not forget and also to remember those happy memories even after many years.....
