The Pet Parlour





Look for Banjo Craig's picture on your grocery store shelves ... this cutie might be featured on a Jones Soda label!












Did someone say "bye-bye"? Because Shelbie Heit is always ready to ride. A very smart GSD/Lab mix, she'd leave without you if you'd just give her the keys!







If you're casting off for the local swimming hole, Roxie Heit will be the first one on board. And, oh ... don't forget the frisbee!!

From Our House To Yours

"Every time a hand reaches out to help another... that is Christmas.
Every time someone puts anger aside and strives for understanding... that is Christmas.
Every time people forget their differences and realize their love for each other... that is Christmas."


May this Christmas
bring us closer to the spirit
of human understanding,
closer to the blessing
of peace.
