If you have anything you would like to put on there then please feel free to try it out. Use the link on left side of the page to navigate to it. Also, a reach out to anyone out there familiar with web design that would like to help with the site; I would like to get a new (and much needed updated) puppies page launched and could use some help from someone with experience.
