Create Custom Holiday Gift Wrap Featuring Your Pets!

Then you can choose a wrapping paper design from Stardust Prints. They have several to choose from, and not just Christmas themed ones either.

Napping Ammo the Dachshund Puppy

7 years ago I was meeting my family for the first time, and the best part is that it was all caught on camera! The quality may not be great, but I’m so glad my mom and dad were able to capture these special memories.

My mom and dad had a blast last night looking through old footage of me as a puppy. Their only regret is there isn’t more!
