Karin and her fur baby, Bliss, can be seen walking around the neighborhood and having doggie playdates, just for fun!

I have a lot of learning to do, and I don’t want to stop. I’ll continue to get help along the way and helping others on the path. Through personal stories or their skills, everyone has something to teach me and I hope I have things to share as well.
