HIDDEN GEM: ROMAN’S OASIS

Roman’s Oasis | Goodyear

You’ve probably driven by it before… You probably have your own ideas about what it’s like behind that neon sign… I had my own ideas too, as did Mr. Buzz who said, “You better cowboy up if you’re going there” as I was getting ready for my night out… Turns out, it’s not what you think!

FOR THE ❤️ OF DOGS

🐾 Meet Gracie Lynn, submitted by Candyce Castillo:

At just 2½ years old, this resilient Lhasa Apso proves that three legs are more than enough to live life to the fullest. After a reconstructive surgery at age one didn’t go as planned, Gracie Lynn had to undergo an amputation and she hasn’t let that slow her down.

These days, you’ll find her holding court at the dog park, happily mingling with pups big and small and leading her little welcoming committee as new friends arrive. At home, she enjoys the comfort of a single-level house (perfect for a tripod queen!) and fills every corner with love and joy.

📆 DOG-RELATED EVENTS:

  • The annual Tonopaws/NADD Holiday Splash runs 12/5 at 9 AM thru 12/7 at 5 PM. Registration Req’d.

  • If you have a dog, it (or actually you 🤣 ) probably needs training! I saw someone online raving about these dog training classes held at Sundance Park, offered through the City of Buckeye. There are basic, intermediate & advanced classes available, starting on December 7th! Register now! Good socializing opportunity too, for both you & your pooch!
