Friends aren’t bling.

Hoop earrings, rock-star stilettos, a snappy new purse. Those are accessories. Our dogs? Not so much. If you are looking to adopt a decade-long-plus companion, check out your local shelter or PetFinder.com. Do not — like, seriously do not — “buy” your new friend from a pet store. That, dear DogMom, is the number one no-no of the FleaGirlz.
