Wally and Rufus

Today I'm launching my Meet the Dogs campaign where I'll showcase your dogs and how they came to be your beloved pets! Want to get involved? Shoot me an email at writing (at) caloyeras (dot) com. 




Rufus and Wally's story as told by their owner, Amy:



"Meet Rufus and Wally! Rufus is part Beagle, Dachshund and maybe even a little Basset Hound. He was adopted from Karma Rescue in 2007 when he jumped into our car and told us he was the one. We fell in love right away. Prior to finding his forever home, Rufus was found on the streets and taken to a pound where he almost saw his final day, until Karma Rescue literally came to the rescue. Fun Fact: He was almost in a photo shoot with Hannah Montana until coming down with kennel cough after his time at the pound. He is still a celebrity dog in our book! 7 years later we decided it was time for Rufus to get a forever friend. Wally, a full Dachshund, stole our hearts the moment we laid eyes on him. He is a cuddle machine who wants nothing more then to be Rufus' BFF.  We are forever indebted to Karma Rescue for bringing these two special guys into our lives."

come join me on Goodreads!

I made the mistake of purchasing my summer reads in advance. Why is this a mistake? Because I've already devoured them!! Here are a few of the titles I read (and really enjoyed!) over the past month. 



Euphoria by Lily King.



May We Be Forgiven by A.M. Homes



Mosquitoland by David Arnold



The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins


Want to see more of what I like? Are you a member of Goodreads? I finally pulled it together and entered my home library onto the site. It's also where I keep track of books that are on my wish list. 


Click here to link to my author page. 


I'll be hosting a giveway there in the upcoming months. 


Back to my summer reading list....can you offer me any good recommendations?
