There are such beautiful Art Deco designs such as Erte, etc. that have clean lines (easier to color).

You. Coercion at its worstest.

Sounds like fun! Anyone else chase their hound with the robotic vacuum? No? Just me.

I started giving Mercury a full-body puppy massage in the morning. It's a good way to check for ticks, lumps, etc. and he loves it. But, Heaven forbid if I forget!!!! I get that needle nose snoot poking poking poking me until I remember my duties.

And for Paddy ALVIN!! Mayhem

Mercury is a black brindle. With his name, I had hoped to put him in black & silver but black & gold are really his colors. Here is blue and brown black & white chocolate brown

Can you blame any of us from falling in love with her at first sight? Her daddy swooned over her on a Greyhound Underground Railroad haul and she never made it to her destination but went home with him. When her new mommy introduced her to the Club, Merc and I were both goners.

Oh Ivy, Yu are so beautimous To me Yu are so beautimous At Dewey Can’t yu see? Yu’re ebereefing I hoped fur I pee where you peed Yu are so beautimous To me! Wiff all muh lubs, Mercury

Following. I have the same issue, or rather, Mercury does.

My Goodness! How lovely

I dunno. It's de same day eberee yeer. Sumtimes, Mummy misses it, tu.

That's womderful. I'm wondering if she does have some sort of anxiety that went away with the calming tablets.

We'll de dare!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ya fink?

Usually, I start wiff muh birfday poem, butt dis yeer, I yam a grown houndie ob nine!! Mummy sez yu are wut yu eet so muh bifday lunch was a-pro-priate. It shure wuz gud!!!

Yeah... I don't think so. Sorry, Charlie. My own brother's Iggys are too much already. Your sweet little podencos however...

Dear sweet, sweet, boy. He will be sorely missed as he did angel duties here on Earth.

What? Did she poop on the hearth? Also missing Paddy ALVIN! Mayhem

Indeed, especially in the home of a sighthound.

My thoughts exactly though we've heard plenty of stories....

I've had similar questions and issues. Maybe we could have a Primer for Idiots. (Idiot = me, not Kathy)

Lucy, I see my own journey with my beloved Liberty, so similar. Yes, do try the Gabapetnin as it may give him some relief. Now, know that what I'm going to say next may sound cold and heartless and it's the exact opposite. It's said with love and deepest support. Consider the time of year. I had planned my Liberty's departure for December 16 (2013) carefully. The semester was over so I didn't have to hold myself together to get work done. But it wasn't so close to Christmas as to make very successive yuletide "that time". A kiss on the nose of Spirit's lomg smoot.

Eggzackly.

I LOVE this story. It's part of my Christmas ritual now. to KLilly to Andi Pants to Whiskey SBSB at the Bridge for Chris, Dennis, Jenny, and Deb who made this happen!

It hurts to say goodbye to such a beautiful, sweet (except for those alpacas! ), bunny-furred girl. Such a lady and such a sprite, at the same time. Fun free, sweet Lila.
