Rescue a dog. Support your local animal shelter. Tuck's favorites:
Cobb County Animal Shelter. Cherokee County Animal Shelter. Cherokee County Humane Society. Feed my friends only a good quality dog food: Darford, or, Back to Basics. Check the FDA website for pet food recalls. Drive carefully and enjoy the ride.
Take care, y'all, and Sweet Dreams (don't touch my remote!)
