Waiting Patiently

MOUNT VISION—Two-year-old Grizzly (left) and his younger brother, Dozer, are staying still as statues as they await a treat from mom. These two big boys, both purebred Newfoundlands, are owned by Peggy Bush and Tim Allen. Grizzly and Dozer are this week’s subjects of a new series highlighting animals and the important role these four-legged, furry and/or feathered friends play in our lives. We invite you to send your pictures to darlay@allotsego.com. Every week, we’ll select at least one photograph to be highlighted in the newspapers and online.
