L.L. Barkat says
Isn’t Toby darling? We think he has a future as a Book Marketing Dog 😉
Donna says
Definitely! 😀 Here he is sporting a cozy, Winter look… so I’m hoping we see more of him… Toby through the year.

the tail as bookmark
seems quite possible
L. L. Barkat says
oh, funny! 🙂
HisFireFly says
tail still attached to the rest of him, of course
I think that’s how he marks his place
and I could surely use some unconditional dog love during my reading time 🙂
