"Molly's
First Birthday by Good Golly Miss Molly"
Co-host
of "Your Life, A to Z", Channel 3 TV, Azfamily.com
Molly
talks about the excitement and adventures of her first year
and says she's looking forward to new adventures now that she's a
"teenage" puppy--We're sure her Mom is looking forward to those
adventures too!
Loving Pets Magazine, November 2004
"Introducing Molly by Good Golly Miss Molly"
Co-host of "Your Life, A to Z" Azfamily.com
Loving Pets Magazine
kindly acknowledged that Molly needed a little help holding the pen and
putting her thoughts on paper. So I'm not breaking a contract or
divulging secrets. However, as most of you know, a true ghostwriter
must remain a ghostly figure. You'll not find my name on Molly's column
or on her web page, and I don't mind at all. This
little star deserves all of the attention and a few extra Milk Bones for
her good work. She's now studying to become a therapy dog. Kudos to
Molly!
