my first favorite thing

Moose is a nutball. Not terribly bright, obsessed with tennis balls, but is the sweetest ball of fur!

Have you met our dog Moose? This young man is a field-bred English springer spaniel and is the ultimate taste tester! He is actually our 5th springer, but I’ll save that backstory for another time and another post. Moose is now 7 years old and he was born in Minnesota. He flew out here to Connecticut as a pup and has been such a sweet addition to our family. I can’t say that he is the smartest dog we’ve ever owned, but he certainly takes the cake when it comes to being the sweetest. What an absolute love bug.

And he LOVES tennis balls. Actually, the word is OBSESSED. We actually have tennis balls scattered all over the house as if we have toddlers scattering their toys all about. One of these days I’m gonna fall and break a hip because of these stinking yellow orbs. And alas, it will be all my fault. 😉 Good thing Moose is cute. He is the BEST taste tester in my kitchen!
