Dog Cousins and Papi Butch - This Is Central New York Family in North Syracuse. We Are Dog People.

Papi Butch is a master of ceremony. Give him a ball and he can keep the dogs entertained. Actually, he's just a pinky...the dogs can preoccupy themselves without the help of human beings. All they need is a room to run in, a few toys, and they can entertain themselves for hours.

I am departing for Minneapolis and I know that Bella will be the secret ingredient for making sure that Glamis gets her exercise, play, and aerobics. It's Laverne and Shirley, Lenny and Squiggy, Cagney and Lacey, and Batman and Robin. All they need are capes and possible Papi Butch to throw them a ball and/or biscuit from time to time and they are all set.

The sad news for Bella is that Glamis doesn't share the same zest for a shining light. Still, socks, balls, Kongs, and bones are equal opportunity distractions for the canine duo. I know, without a doubt, that Glamis will be in good hands with Glamma Sue and Glampa Butch give her romper room time with her cousin.

Bring on Dixie. I can't wait for the holidays where the dogs own the show.
