The Perfect Guest

We were so lucky to have a house guest the past couple of nights.  We hosted Cooper, my stepson's miniature Australian shepherd (and one of my featured dogs), as his wife just had a beautiful baby girl named Hannah.  My dog, Charlie loved having Cooper around and they just hung out together.  

Cooper and I got to talking about politics because he knows how obsessed I am.  He cannot stand Sarah Palin as she is no friend to animals - shooting moose and caribou and hunting down wolves from a helicopter.  Cooper just can't understand that and thinks she's mean!  And scary - very scary.  Cooper's smart.

I Loathe Her

She just bugs me!

I Love this Guy

When I saw Senator Durbin introducing our next President, Barack Obama, at the Democratic Convention, he reminded me how much I love him.  He's the greatest.  He represents the people of Illinois so very well and he responds to all the emails I send him personally.  

This is my little tribute to the great Senator:

McNasty

Is it true you called your wife a c#@t?  Wow!  Just wow!  No wonder you're called McNasty.

Where Have You Been?

I know you took the 3:10 to Yuma but when are you coming back?

Flora The Reluctant Explorer

This little lady was waiting out in front of Starbucks for her doggy daddy.  She looks like a little palomino in a dachshund's body.

A Summer Do

Murray has been featured on this blog before ("It's Murray").  I consider him one of my "feature dogs".  Here he is with his new summer haircut.  It's cute, huh?  What I love about this picture, it looks like it's been photoshopped with Murray's head on some dog's body.  But I assure you, it hasn't been.  Here's to summer, Murray!
