Hounds of the Holidays

Feeling dogged by the holidays? Since I haven’t been posting much, I thought I’d contribute–behind a cut for those who don’t like photos dominating their monitors’ real estate. Happy new year.


Little Blind Sparky makes a gift of himself as the Christmas Rug.

  1. I love seeing all these dogs. Thanks! And, no lie, that sock is groovy.

    I was over at ‘s today, admiring a photo of a jacket his man was trying on, which he called “lurid.” I said I wanted it, and he told me all it needed was flashing lights to make it more noticable. : )

    1. I’ll see if I can’t find one to send you when I’m out running errands today–if I can ever get off this computer and into the shower.

  2. I behaved badly this season. I didn’t take photos of the dog like I should have. He opened his soccer ball up with his paws, too. It was so cute. I love the all these dogs. Sue is a dog that I would love to have. That breed, to me, is so sweet. Of course, I think all dogs rock.

    Lindsey sure is a pretty woman. She’s so photogenic. So is Rhonda for that matter! What is up with that? Bob is awesome in photos, and I always look like Robert Plant. LOL Just ask Mark. hahahah

    1. A hot chick, a dog that can balance penguins on her head AND A PONY! Apparently you’ve learned nothing in the close to five years we’ve been together. 😉

      P.S. I? Have a hot chick, a dog that can balance penguins on her head and a big, fluffy, cotton candy-cloud bed in which we all fit for snuggling. 😉 Boo-yah, one-uped ya!

      P.P.S. I just had a little bit of coffee with my lotta bit of sugar… can you tell?

    1. He weighs 160, I think, and has the sweetest disposition on the planet. I could just hug him all the time. Though he does have kind of a drool problem.

  3. Wonderful the way they love to are coerced into joining in!!!

    No seriously, the ‘doggie accessories’ really suit them and I think you’ve summed up their expressions perfectly!

    Happy New Year!

    1. It really belongs to Sue and matches one bought for Minute, who’s terribly embarrassed by hers. Unlike Phoebe and Sophie, Minute doesn’t understand that you can be a girly girl and also run crazy through the woods and chase ducks and squirrels.
