Merry Christmas to All

The-Butlands-Christmas-Card-2008
Every year we try to out do our Christmas picture from the year before and this one has to be the simplest one yet! With pictures already taken and a picture available depicting Paul’s new love of Rock Band we were set.

Corona, Russ and I don’t have much desire to play in the band but will do whatever is necessary to make Paul happy. I just hope he doesn’t want to go on the road any time soon as that I’m not prepared to do.

So from our Rock band to your band, we are wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Years. This Dogo Argentino can’t wait to see what adventures 2009 hold for her!

Dreaming Away Winter


Winter is finally here and Corona wants no part of how it’s coming in. With ice and rain, freezing cold temperatures, Corona is left wondering where her snow is.

Dogo Argentino’s, being from Argentina, are not used to the cold but this Dogo LOVES the snow. She could be outside playing in snow all day despite her short fur and shivering but we have to drag her in after a while (we’re freezing, too). Only this winter is more of ice and dampness and this dog has already had her fair share.

So on days like today she’s thankful for her pillow and bed, electric and propane heat and Corona will be content enough to dream of the games in snow to come (she’s realized they’re inevitable).
