Happy new year from Spirit and the gang in Grafton Ontario.

The big black dog is enjoying the wee bit of snow we have, though sliding down the hill hasn't been much fun for him, claws and paws spread to try and get a grip on the ice.

But walks to the post office where he gets treats, and walks to the grocery store where he gets lots of petting, and trips to the dog park make up for any downside from the freezing rain and ice that Ontario has experienced.

May you all have a very happy new year and may 2016 be a great year for all animals, pets and wildlife alike. More stories to follow soon. Thank you all for your comments and for visiting Primarily Pets...
