About Raven
Raven is my beautiful spoiled princess. She gets the princess treatment and even has all her meals cooked for her. Raven is first my pet and my baby above all else. She loves to roll over on her back and have her belly rubbed. She is the best mom ever to her babies. She absolutely loves yogurt and blueberries and carrots for snacks. And any kind of doggie ice cream. She loves to be pampered in my grooming shop, even getting her nails painted. Her and the puppies have their own room in my house and my life revolves around them.
