Although Finn has only been in his forever home for a short while, he has already endeared himself to the entire neighbourhood!  Finn has taken on the role of the neighbourhood greeter and must stop to say hello to everyone we meet on his walks.  Well, technically they aren’t really walks, they are more along the lines of “meet and greet” which...

#2628 Shiloh
