Pretty Girl

I had some fun dressing Willow up in different patterns of fabric. I used to make these bandanas for the dogs all the time but it's been a long while. The red one is from when Buddha and Simba were puppies. The pink is for our little princess. I am hoping to start up with the creativity again and make some fun items for the pup. She's growing FAST!

Christmas Joy With The Boys

Minion Pups

I certainly enjoy dressing these pups up and Caesar is a part of the pack so he gets to join in on the fun! This year, we went with a Minion theme. They weren't exactly pleased but they were good sports about it. After all the torture, they received lots of treats and praise! Love these pups!

Halloween For Three

After a lovely walk through the park, the boys dressed up for Halloween fun! This year I decided to dress them up as....well I'm not entirely sure. I liked the idea of putting ties on them and found some fun hats and a mask. They are used to dress up time with their mom so this was nothing unusual. The only difference was that Caesar was a part of the crew this year. A three pack! Caesar has fit in very nicely. Simba adores him now. I love it. Happy pups!

Star Wars Pups

Our first Halloween at our new home. To share my love of Star Wars, I dressed Simba up as Darth Vader and Buddha as C-3PO. Buddha is goofy like C-3PO and Simba is devilish like our favorite Sith lord. I don't think I'll ever stop dressing these babies up.

Mad Men: Doggy Style!

 I can show you the world...

 I'm sexy and I know it!

We've got swagger.

 I better be getting a treat for this.

 Stupid humans...

 In truth, I am a handsome devil.

 I don't like you very much right now...

Fashion Faux PAWS

It's been nearly two years since I started going to the dog park. I went from never owning a dog to owning two dogs and going to the dog park every single day! Here are some FASHION lessons I have learned!

1) Never wear a white shirt.
2) If you like your gloves, make sure you keep them on because the second those puppies come off a dog will snatch and chew them up!
3) Your legs will get battered by excited dogs so if you want to wear shorts be ready to be a scratching post.
4) Remember those brand new shoes you bought? They now have poop in all the tiny crevices. Good luck cleaning them!
5) High heels? PLEASE! Those suckers will sink into the urine infested ground. YUM.
6) Nice phones and other expensive electronics will get drooled on, stolen by a sneaky pup and ultimately broken because dogs don't mind yanking things off the table and using them as their personal chew toy.
7) Scarves can prove to be ultra hazardous especially if you wrap them nicely around your neck. This can incite a type of tug of war between you and a dog or one dog on each end.
8) That gorgeous Louis Vuitton bag that you own won't stand a chance. First, it smells like a cow (yummy) and second, dogs don't care how much you spent on your accessories.
9) Wild, untamed hair may attract the opposite sex but it will also attract dogs. Scrunch it up lady! Unless you want your hair chewed on and ultimately pulled out.
10) Summer dresses might be nice but if you are conservative be prepared for sniffing dogs to push up your skirt. They don't follow the same moral codes that we do and screaming just makes them want to do it more!

Pretty in pink AND orange

We were all bored after the Christmas festivities. Clearly. Is it torture to find random pieces of fabric, place them on a unsuspecting dog and take pictures of them? Eh, whatever. They didn't care TOO much and it gave us all a laugh or two. I have to say that Onix looks fabulous in pink. Real men wear pink.

Ho Ho Ho!

It's not Christmas yet but it's time to get in the spirit. I won't be able to dress Buddha up like this when he is older so I have to take advantage of it now. Even though Simba and Buddha are Buddhists they will appreciate their very first Christmas because their mom and dad have lots of gifts in store.

They are fortunate. There are so many cats and dogs who are abused or without a home. Not only that but in many countries these animals are treated like dirt. Many are killed and eaten and some are simply stoned for pleasure. I've never been a dog owner prior to now but I would adopt more if I had the means, the time and the sanity.
