Cookie loves sports.
I had so much fun looking through videos of Cookie today. This puppy loves her sports! If you’re like me, you really can’t get enough of dog videos. Watching videos of animals is my favorite escape. I hope you enjoy this video I made of Snicker Doodle Cookie, who is happiest when she is outside […]
