Last month, we dog-sat Cousin Alphonse (a.k.a. Alphie) over a long weekend while his family was away.  He had a great time playing with Mattie and Trooper.  Alphie and Trooper took a long nap one afternoon…on Bobbi’s lap!  Yes, Alphie is a pit bull.  He has incredible strength but is a big ole’ love bug, especially with his new baby brother.
