Woof! A Versatile Gay Companion.

Posted on August 29, 2011 by | 4 comments

His charm and his desire to please are fundamental attributes. The instinctive qualities of complete fidelity and devotion are known to all. His eagerness for affection is not based on ambition but on an appeal to the universal heart of mankind: that those that live to please must please to live”
