How much time?

monica1981 @monica1981 (466) • United States 16 Jun 08

I'm curious to know how much time you spend per day on PTC's, PTR's and PTP's. I know there are a lot of sites for these, but with how much you make on them I'm guessing you'd need to spend a lot of time everyday working at it.

My puppy just turned one the other day. I suppose that means he's officially not a puppy anymore. Still, the past year was fun, teaching him tricks, watching him grow, going through all the puppy phases. How old is your dog, and...

World Traveler

monica1981 @monica1981 (466) • United States 8 Jun 08
