📸 A few moments from today…

There are so many little stories that unfold between the dogs at Hilltop…

Sometimes we’re too slow to catch them, fumbling to get phones out of pockets in time.

But this little series features a handful of the moments from today we did capture; giving a glimpse into the tender, funny, iconic or simply remarkable times the dogs - unbeknownst to them - give as gifts to their human companions ❤️
