    What’s up with all these teacup dogs?? Let’s see some dogs you can wrestle with! Scruffy’s holding it down for me (although Moose is kind of a badass…)

    I looooooooooooooooove Scruffy!!!!

    When Moose and I were working on his profile this morning, I suggested he change his favorite drink from “toilet water” to “merlot”. He said he would think about it.
