I am in love. It is true. A smile in my heart, sweet kinda love…
A simple happy love. An uncomplicated love…
A pure sparkly love…
The one I love, has shiny blond hair. The one I love makes funny faces. The one I love, held my hand last night, when I was alone, in the dark, in the country, with no power during an outrageous lightning and rain storm. The one I love tells me stories while we lounge on lazy days & takes part in my silly antics, like dress up and follow the leader. The one I love, is always there for me, and always brings a smile to my face… And, wouldn’t you know it, the one I love never steals my treats (well, almost never).
The one I love, holds my heart captive. Who knew? You see, this is my first love of this sort. We have been in eachother’s lives for 8 blissful years…
The one I love gets into simple charming mischief. I can usually see the proof on her nose…
I always knew I had love for her. Except once when we thought we lost her, I realized this was more than just puppy love. I had walked outside one morning and Mr. Lovee’s eyes were full of pain. I had just woken up. I was in my pj’s barefoot. Standing in the dirt. And he said, Dovee, I have bad news. I think Baby is missing.
I felt my heart drop into the dirt. Pain. White lightning kind of pain shot through my heart. I kneeled on the ground and put my head between my knees and sobbed…
Luckily she wasn’t lost at all, and quite safe and sound, and we made it through that incident. But it only reinforced my love for her…
She is quite the character. And those faces she makes!
This is the faux worried look…
Oh, and let me throw in the fact that, she owns this. Which means she shares my love for that spooky day…
Here is a charming portrait of her and her favorite tin jack-o-lantern…
And here is what happens after too many pictures. Boredom to the maximum degree…
How she loves her pool…
I ask her to show me her best mermaid moves… But she says she would rather just blow bubbles underwater…
Now, the nutty part is that, in perfect doggy fashion, she insists upon this after a nice cool bath…
A lovely talcum dusting. Of the dirt variety.
I think nothing of the dirt encrusted pooch, after she gives me the giggle face…
We dance around in a whirlwind of bubbles…
She likes to pretend she lives in a period drama… Who does she think she is? Lizzy? Jane Austen, Miss Mati from Cranford?? I have to admit, she does pull it off well 😉
But, best of all, she supports all my artistic endeavors. She even has her own subscription to Artful Blogging. I know!! Insane 😉
Now you tell me, how can I not be in love? I never really had pets growing up. I had an outdoor cat growing up, Casey (I am allergic to kitties, even though I love them). She lived from the time I was like 8 until I left for college… And a bird, Ginger, who lived for 1 day (when I was around 5). I know, so sad… We had a handful of fish and such… But this is my first true pet love… 8 years of Blisss….
So, tell me about your beloved pet? Or one you had growing up?? Wonderful pet love…
Now, I must be off, but I wish you lots of Dreaminess and creativity this weekend… Or perhaps, time to refuel and relax, and just be… Whatever it is that you do, may it be infused with sparkly magic…
And perhaps, you might find a bit of inspiration to swirl about in..
If you are in the U.S. have a safe 3 day weekend!! Yippppeee!! Off I go to listen to my favorite and make my way into that creative magical world of my own, tonight… Maybe I’ll see you there? Tea, anyone? LOVE, V 🖤
Tell you about my love?? Come over to our place and you’ll see for yourself!
Edward and I love this post! And your blog is wonderful!
here is my dearest pet love: http://thespunmonkey.livejournal.com/8579.html
irreplaceable.
Awwww….how sweet! What a cute doggy friend you have!
Vanessa,
What a sweet post about your dog. Our dog is also named Baby! What a coincedence! She is an indoor dog. We are babysitting my brotherinlaw’s lab, Spook. Just love dogs!Well, I digress. Anyway,you are such a great storyteller! So entertaining!
Hilda
Cutest doggie I have ever seen! She is surely a beloved pet & friend. We have 3 cats, but one is actually my own. (Or at least, I pay his bills) Coco. We call him Coco Bean. Oh, and I understand about losing power…I lost power too! (Funny, on the other side of the country, but having storms too) I guess we need the rain here, though. I like to think of storms as a giant swimming pool from the heavens…people jumping in is the thunder, and the water spilling over is the rain. (I never came up with what the lightning was though….) Happy Labor Day Weekend! Hope you have a super time. Say hi to your adorable irrisistible furry friend for me!
~Pixie Doll
I think you know how much in love I am with Miss Ruby Roo… We just took some home movies today, at Roo’s insistence of course, and she hopes we can get them online soon to show off the cute. 😉
It was fun meeting your little love! I wish she and Roo could have a playdate!
Oh how lucky you are to be in love with such a faithful partner! You asked that we share our loves… so I thought it would be easier to share some links. I haven’t said much about my two loves in awhile. But they are so sweet and messy and stinky!

Lovely post! I like the jaw breaker pic! And the puppy blowing bubbles. Hope you enjoy a lovely long weekend. I have to work then next 4 days! I’m tired and sad just thinking about it… but life will surely go on!
Vanessa Of course you have a dog….certain types of people have dogs…good people!!! I had dogs in pairs from birth to death for over 30 years…this is the longest I’ve not had one…it’s been two years now! It still feels strange…but as you see with Baby rolling in gosh knows what…they are a lot of work…especially if she took a nap in your bed after that not so roll in the hay she had! But they bring the most phenomenal pleasure…and at times well worth the extra work! She is a beautiful girl….may you enjoy many more pleasant days joined at the hip in the land of creativity!
Bug hugs to you and Baby
Giggles
I have two cats — (Pearl has her own blog…) and one little cavalier king charles spaniel. I got my doggie one year ago and she has been a wonderful addition to our family and we love her to bits. Even my parter, who says he doesn’t like dogs, adores her.
After reading your blog since that fateful day I decided to join you last blog party, I’ve been seeing so many ideas for my own. And I decided to sort-of take a page from your book and fill my latest post with sparkly pictures. 😀
I hope you get to stop by and check it out here:
http://themagickbox.wordpress.com/2008/08/30/lipgloss-day/
two blogs in one day:0 thank you!! we had two gorgeous labradores as children. the golden one was ‘prince’ and the black one was ‘mugsy’. great dogs and so very sad when the creep next door baited mugsy because he had a prize winning garden he didnt want the neighbourhood pooches or pusses messing. we recently had a cat befriend us for a long while and we named her ‘stella’ but we found her owners after a while. enjoy your long weekend. mmwah rosey
Awww she’s gorgeous. I feel the same about my little toby he’s the love of my life (as well as the fiancé of course!!)
What a beautiful post, and I can certainly relate! Although our grown daughter has left the nest, we have five other children here of the furry variety; Cheetah the tiny but mighty spotted/tiger cat, Merlin the black cat, Arthur – Merlin’s ginger brother, and our two beloved Australian Shepherds, Cadie and Cosmo (also known as the velcro dogs)….They like to lay on my feet as I paint. 🙂
Love your blog – so magical, and have linked it on mine….
Blessings,
~ Carolee
Happy Saturday!
I love your dog, Vanessa, adorable!
~ Gabriela ~
A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself. – Josh Billings As much as you love her, I am sure she loves you just as much. I have two doggie loves right now, Muffin and Spencer. Muffin sleeps on my pillow every night and I think I am the luckiest person in the whole house! Have a great weekend! Twyla
Oh Vanessa! I loved this post! You have such a beautiful heart… 🙂 Such a pretty puppy and so sweet! Hope you have a lovely holiday weekend!!
Well, Miss V, your baby is a beauty! I’m so glad that what you lost you also found.
My Dearest Boy is a 15 year old dachshund who has a faceful of gray hair and and entitled attitude. He has had three major surgeries, before which we nearly lost him all three times. I know the pain of which you speak: it can rip straight through the heart.
He has been in liver failure for 18 months now (the vet thought he wouldn’t live more than 6 months after his diagnosis) and we think he will outlive us both out of sheer cussedness! 🙂 He is our Boon Companion.
Thank you for sharing pictures of your beautiful girl.
xoxo
Kate
V, aw, that was so sweet. I loved this post! Your puppy is so cute and has so much personality! I loved the rolling around in the dirt, blowing bubbles in the pool, and the big giggle grin face! You brightened my morning!
Happy day and happy weekend! Don’t HONK too loud, I might take a nappie!
xoxo
I love Baby’s giggle face so much!!
My cats, Little Eggplant and Amigo, are my love muffin kitties and I just can’t get enough of them. Right now they are sitting on the bed with me. Amigo (5-6 months old) is going after Eggplant’s tail. Little Eggplant aka Leggy (2.5 yrs old) is cleaning her toes and occasionally leans over to Lick Amigo. It’s very cute for now but will most likely end in a kitty wrestling match.
Oh how I love them…
I hope to have a dog someday too when I am not in a 1 bedroom apartment and am better equipped to take care of one.
So glad you shared your pics of Baby!
(ps love tori amos)
Oh there’s nothing like the love of a pet is there? Only, I think calling them a pet is somehow discounting the role they really play in our lives. I don’t think I could ever get tired of taking pictures of my kitty…I adore her so much. We were actually having a conversation last night about what kind of a life I would have if she didn’t live here…
She rolled her eyes at me.
your dog is soooo cute 🙂
we have two kitties, Teagan and Piccoli, and we love them like nothing else (except each other, of course). here are some pictures of them 🙂

In that last one there are two pictures of our deceased fish, Substantial too. He ate frozen peas and he was wonderful. We miss him.
Have a lovely day!
Okay…this has me blowing coffee bubbles of laughter! How sweet is your sweetie? And the photos are just to crackin’ up funny…LOVE the flower on the head AND the blowing bubbles in the pool!! Vanessa….your photos and posts are like a mini-retreat from a hectic life. Thank you oodles for your beautifuls spirit, your photographic talent and for sharing life with us through your posts! You’re the whipped cream on my latte! : ))

It is TRUE love!
My dog died last year but just a moment ago I was thinking about him and how he used to curl around a rug I have in the shape of the heart. He was very conscious of its format and he put himself right inside the heart, nothing was out. That was so cute 🙂
Your babe is a cutie, they sure love those dust talcums lol
Tori is my favourite too ! 🙂
oooooh I want to go swimming with your sweet Baby!! I would even roll around in the dirt afterwards…just to be good company:)
When I was growing up we always had Great Danes. I would ride on their backs when I was teeny little! It was like having my very own pony living in the house:):) They are the sweetest companions:):):) I miss them.
Now we just have our little (really not so little at all!!) rescue cat Mazzy who is 12. I can’t wait until we are permanently settled somewhere and we can get a dog again:):):)
Happy long weekend to you!!!!
xoxoxo…jenn
Vanessa,
I love the post and the wonderful pictures of your sweet pup. I too have a dog. She is an Australian Shepard/Border Collie. She is 8 years old. She will not go down stairs in the morning until I go down. She is my protector from those she feels aren’t in my best interest. She is great at rounding up the other dogs that live with us. She is a beautiful black/tan long haired dog with lacey legs. She has tan eyebrows that give me the look of thinking she thinks I am a little nuts at times. She is a soothing friend as I am sure Baby is to you. Have a wonderful weekend! Hugs, Bobbi Jo
Thank you for the beautiful postcards that I purchased from your etsy store. I love them! So did my daughter, and since she was moving interstate, I couldnt say no when she asked if she could have one.
I read your blog everyday, and everyday I am inspired. Thank you Vanessa Valencia, thank you so so much!
Oh!! Your baby is the best!! That photo of her blowing bubbles…love it!
You know, I have my 2 pooches, one the photogenic, one camera shy…actually my camera shy Itty looks an awful lot like baby…you tell baby to open her copy of Artful Blogging to page 3 and see for herself:)
x..x
What a dear sweet doggie!!! One of my loves is my cat Travis.. He’s getting to be an old man! I visited an animal shelter about 11 years ago and it was LOVE at first site!!
He’s still around, he actually runs the house!!!!~
Take care and have a great weekend!
Baby is SO cute, I love her expressions!
We (G and I) had a dog for 14 years named Cherokee. She was docile and sweet and NEVER barked unless you said “speak” for a treat…and even then it took all she could muster. She was a shepherd/malamute and she was beautiful. She loved to play fetch and I, too, would blow bubbles for her as she tried to eat them from the air. When we first got her (from someone giving away puppies) I think she was on my lap or carried around by me more often than not. She had what we called a cow belly – brown spots until her fur got fuller- and oh how she loved that belly rubbed.
It was with heavy hearts and many sobbing tears (on both our parts) that we had to make a very difficult decision. She no longer knew where she was or even how to walk. Sometimes I swear I can still hear her tags clinking in the back yard after all this time.
As you know we currently have the 2 divas cats who rule the house….they own US….we merely rent from them.
We still hope to one day have a dog again!!
Maybe when we do our dog and Baby could be penpals!(or would that be penPAWS?)
XOXOXOXOX
Doggies, they still your heart forever, I would be truly lost without my little man as I call him…well 120 lbs of litle lab…lol..I just love this dog he’s the best and your is very cute to just a beautiful post…, Lisa
Oh, she is so so sweet. I think I might be in love too!
Your doggy is absolutely gorgeous. I worked for a while as a dog trainer, and have been obsessed with doggies for as long as I can remember. I’ve been lucky to have some lovely doggies over the years – Hugh, a mad Dalmatian, Ori (short for Orinoco), a huge long haired German Shepherd, Meika a big softy of a Rottweiler, and Charlie a Shepherd cross husky who is the most gentle dog ever. I’ve nominated you for the Love your blog award (assuming you haven’t already had it). Sharon x
Well ~ my sweet friend.
We just buried our darling boy Shelty this past Monday.You sent me a hug when you heard he was sick.
But~last Sunday night he quietly stayed asleep.
He was the most Beautiful, Smart, Handsome,fellow and he watched after us. He followed me everywhere I went, he would never dream of going upstairs to bed , until I went upstairs to bed. Little things like that.And ~ many big things. I have many story’s from his 14 years of life that prove him to be a true hero.He understood us , he really knew what we were saying & how we were feeling. It really was the most Beautiful thing to have him in our lives.
God~ I miss him so much!Many Hugs~Amy~
Oh, what a lovely girl! I, too, didn’t get my first doglove until I was an adult. For my 21st birthday, I welcome Bronte Cinnamon Glittersheinz, the magnificient mini dachshund into my life. She has been my companion for almost 12 wonderful years. I also welcomed another pup, General Melchior Muzquiz (Mooskies) to my life in 2001. I have never KNOWN such love for little furry creatures! I already worry that they will feel horribly slighted and replaced by my baby this winter. I will have to hope they all get along and grow to love our daughter, too.
I have NEVER understood why doglettes must go ‘dust’ after their baths. Mine do that, too! Believe it or not, I have a cat, Clyde J. Cat, that really doesn’t mind baths. HE, however, prefers to go roll in anthills afterwards. OUCH!
Your pooch is soo sweet! She looks just like honey.
The love of my life is Pablo, a little monkey of a dog. He keeps me company throuh out the day, we walk and play and snuggle. He has changed my life (too heavy for a sunday afternoon) and I love him just as much the sun!
Wow! Your post seems custom written for me! Candy, lots of bubbles and a favorite doggie! I share the same fun interests.
My wonderful dog is Bentley, a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. He follows me everywhere. If I get up…he follows.
Sometimes I feel badly about this… since I may be walking into the next room for a second.
I was taking a bath last night and his little head peered over the tub as he whined. I guess he wasn’t close enough 🙂
Thanks for the smiles.

What a fabulous post! My wonderful Mini Schnauzer has been my heart for the past 3 years. Animals and esp. dogs are such wonderful parts of our lives!

Our dog Spike is a special friend. We got him for my son’s 8th birthday, back when only my son and I lived together. When my boyfriend Jeff moved in I sometimes wondered if he came to that decision because was in love with me or Spike. :o) Spike is such a loving pet. He always sits with me when I am upset, and was my closest friend while I cried to him during some especially difficult times. He is 5 now and a very part of our family. Tez is our other dog, she is 2 and not quite like Spike. She has many wonderful qualities but she has the aloofness of a cat. If she senses any emotion out of the norm she scatters quickly out the doggie door. When you get a cuddle moment with Tez it is a special treat you treasure until the next rare moment.
I like this post, its very touching..but Im in the same situation that you were, with your cat…I have a wonderful, beautiful diva of a cat, and shes an outside cat…but Im soo allergic to her, that I can not even touch her..its so sad, because I want to love on her, and spoil her, but no can do..haha its ok though, my dad spoils her rotten…;p
Love the great photos and the story of your fave. As for me, I had a favourite dog named Allen (after my first-grade boyfriend) and assorted cats over the years. But once I left home, no more pets! Too much moving around from place to place and city to city. One of these days if I pitch my gypsy tent, I may have a dog again. Like you, am now allergic to cats. Hope you’re having a good LD weekend! xoxox
Your dog has a sweet face and it looks like a gentle yet fun-loving disposition! I grew up with cats and so I’m partial to them. I’m not the biggest fan of dogs (probably has to do having some neighbors pit bulls jumping on me as a kid) but there are some really sweet ones who are the apple of their owners eyes;)
I had a tiny frog named Jelly Belly..he lived for several years..he was so quirky and could make me smile when I looked at his tiny face.
Mark and I had an Iguana for many years (Mark had her for a total of 13 yrs). He got her form someone who had rescued her from a situation where the owner mistreated her (put out cigarettes on her).
“Pokey” had her own quirky personality (Iguanas are apparently as smart as cats) and we took her everywhere. The only people who seemed scared of her were adults as kids wanted to hold and asked a thousand questions about her. Before I “met” her I wasn’t too keen on reptiles but she was a perfect example that you don’t need fur or whiskers to be something worth loving:)
Enjoy your holiday weekend!
She is soooo adorable!!! I have an adorable one too named Abbie and she too is the love of my life!!!! These sweet pets just know how to take our hearts in their control…I can hardly wait everyday to get home and snuggle with my precious pooch. She is very entertaining and loveable and mischievious and just down right happy! Thanks for sharing youe sweet Baby!
What a great post about your dog! I’ve had pets all my life. Here’s a post about Phoenix http://nostoneunstrung.blogspot.com/2008/07/gift-from-phoenix.html
I love your big blond baby! I have always loved yellow dogs and the ones we’ve had over the years were so special to me. Each one still lives in my heart. Our current sweetie is a Pug, but he’s still (almost) yellow! Thank you for sharing your great pictures. Yeah, blowing bubbles is great fun, isn’t it?
what a lovely post about your love …
since you asked, we have a house of critters (yes, this does include the spouse and child of the female variety under 10) …
first, there’s Sally. she’s the cat that chose Sadie … one day she walked through the open door of our house and plopped herself on Sadie’s bed … she’s been with us ever since.
Fern, the circus dog came next. Don and Sadie rescued her from the pound shortly before we left Phx for PG … some claim she’s a puggle, but I am certain that she’s an ex-circus dog as she is a real performer and steals the hearts of all who meet her.
not too long ago, Dinky, the guinea pig joined our little petting zoo. interesting creature – he makes some of the funniest sounds.
we also have a Beta named Jack that keeps us company while clicking the computer keys and a tank in Sadie’s room …
lol, yes, there’s a house full of love over here. 🙂
My mostest FAVORITE of dogs was probably my last one! He was a black Irish Setter and he was my baby! That’s what I asked of him when I first laid eyes on him, “Who’s BABY are YOU??!! and he knew and I knew HE was mine! My cousin brought him over to our farm because he was the runt of the litter and the other dogs were just plain mean and he was soOOOOOOo skinny and deprived of every good thing, he couldn’t even walk right, soOOOOOoo wobbly at first! I called him Loose, Lucy Loose! He reminded me of a girl, the way he acted sometimes, such a scaredy cat of things but I still remember the long walks over the hill and laying down beside this sweet creature, watching the wind blow his hair! I still think he was trying to find me one wintry night when I was out on a date, he was run over and I still cry for this doggie and it’s been 37 years ago??!!Phew! Now, I am allergic to all animals but I am tempted to get a pooch, maybe some day! I still try and pet animals but my eyes and skin will not have it! I LOVE your baby, especially the giggle eyes pic!!! LOL Give him a BIG SMOOCH and a BIG BEAR HUG for me would YOU sweetie???! xoxoxox’s ps. I have to mention a stray doggy that came here for a little while, we named her TEDDY because she looked like a teddy bear but I was still allergic, I just HOPE she found a good home, the shelter said she had but I still wonder!
oh love and kisses for your Baby! she is so beautiful, though I’m totally biased perhaps because I think my ‘baby’ might be her long lost sister …

What a lovely Baby! Golden retrievers are such sweet dogs. I didn’t grow up with pets, because there were 7 kids in my family, and that was enough for my parents to contend with. As soon as I was on my own, I got my first cat, which I named Zeeba (I found out later the word means “beautiful” in Farsi.) She came when I whistled for her. I’ve always treated my cats kind of like dogs, and they seem to have the same loyalty to me. I had her for about 12 years.
My second cat was named Oscar, and he had 8 lives left when I met him. We found one another at a no-kill animal shelter in San Francisco. He had been hit by a car, and they mended his broken leg. In payment, he became the blood-donor cat, until I adopted him. What a character he was, so loving. Too many stories to relate: one of the most memorable was when I returned from a visit to Michigan, he put his paws around my shoulders and gave me a hug!
Then there’s Domi Delmonico who I adopted from the Humane Society (after Oscar the Wonder Cat passed on.) Almost feral when I got him as a teeny tiny kitten. It took him about 3 years before he’d let me pet him. He’s 12 years old now and an adorable lap cat.
Aren’t animals swell?!!
~Such a sweet post! And, you are SO beautiful! Love your picture!~ Mandy
I am in love too. 🙂
Hello Vanessa,,, What a sweetie love you have. I have a virtual zoo, so I have alot of love, not to mention I have a pet sitting business. I have cats right now and they are such wonderful helpers when I am trying to work at home and sew and make jewelry. They are expert typers on the keyboard as well. They are my office managers. I love your sweeties pool and pumpkin, I guess he is getting ready for the holiday. So this AZ weather has been CRAZY, but wow so beautiful. The lightning has just been gorgeous for the last few nights. As long as everyone is safe and sound. Your pictures of your land are just beautiful and like no where else on this planet. I love the beauty of the desert during the monsoon. Happy day off and happy creating…..(())gail
I am also in love with my little Molly. Aren’t dogs the best friends? So loyal and caring. Where would the world be without them?!?
I have just fallen in love with the one you love…..
I’ve left you a little something on my blog. Please pick it up when you have a moment. xoxo
We have a delightful trio…choco, frannie, and rylie. Frannie and Rylie are the escape artists and look like mutt and jeff… Frannie the Brittany and Rylie the Brussels Griffon. Frannie gives me heart attacks everytime she escapes…she is so loving and trusting and I know the coyotes would be big trouble for her. They have their own splash pool too…and also go roll in the dirt to powder themselves. THen we have to go in and take a real bath…after I lock the doggie door. I can’t tell you how many times Frannie has pointed scorpions and kept me from stepping on them.
Your art and pictures always take my breath away. I would comment more often but I’m usually left speechless. I love your curiosity and sense of adventure. You’re not one to not enjoy life. I always enjoy your wonderful stories of adventure and wish I had your talent to make simplicity sparkle.
Hola! Vanessa. I had a cat, named Baby. God Bless You, Lisa-vet.
Oh! You made me fall in love with her too! I have 2 beautiful babies too! Oscar was a bday gift from my hubby 13 years ago and Shelby was a stray hubby brought home. She was very thin and covered in ticks. We nursed her back to health and she is the most grateful and loving girl you will ever meet! Thanks for sharing your baby, would love to see more of her!
Baby is so cute! I have 2 Golden Retriever puppies that keep me on my toes, named Stormy and Sunny. They would love taking a bath with baby I’m sure. Have a great long weekend.
Take care,
Martha
Our pets are such important members of our families. Our pug is our WORLD! Their lives should be filled with love and hugs each day. We are so lucky to have them! Love your wonderful post today…:)mendy
Such a lovely post about your love. She is a beauty.
My childhood pet loves were a parakeet named Perry…he loved my Grandmother to pieces and when we moved to the US she adopted him.
I also had a monkey…a Spider Monkey. Poor thing came to Iceland on a Norwegian ship…hey I think this is a blog post in the making. xoxox thanks.
I wrote about the lovely gift you sent me…come over and see.
How can you not love a dog? They give back to us 100% love and devotion. Your photos of your sweet girl are wonderful! You seem to have captured her sweet spirit. My current pet is a scottish terrier named Pippen. He’s named after Scottie Pippen the basketball player who used to play with Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls. Pippen makes me smile every morning when I wake up with him wrapped around my head, snuggled into my pillows. And the day just gets better from there. I love my little god of frolic! Life just doesn’t get any better! Happy Labor Day!
~Allie
What a perfectly sweet post!!! I just love anyone who is devoted to a pet like that, it shows such character and compassion 🙂 xo!
Beautiful Beautiful puppy! I can see why you are in love! You must have thousands upon thousands of photos of her.
And I love that you are a Tori fan. I knew you had to be! I listen to her sometimes when I paint too.
Happy September!

That sweet, sweet dirt face! My dog love is Bo who has chocolate eyes, wonderful kohl makeup and the most expressive ears.
I absolutely am in love with your dog…tooooo cute! I’ve been bugging Glenn to get me a golden retriever now for 4 years. But all I keep hearing is no…you have a dog and we can’t afford it. I’m sorry, but Bear (stop by and see Bear) is a chicken dog…I want a real dog that will go for rides in the car with her tongue hanging out….sigh!
Hugz,
Michele

I love sweet Baby. I wish Sully and Baby could be introduced.
Baby is SO Cute! I like dogs more than people, though I don’t have one cause it was so hard after my girl died. Anyway you are SO LUCKY!
Also, I like how Mr. Lovee calls you Dovee!
So nice. Happy day to you and the fairy’s and trolls, the snail people and other various and characters.

Tell you about my l🖤ve(s)? Come see them! There aren’t enough words to tell you how much I love them and how much they mean to me and to my life.
Hey, Miss V…
I love love love the pics of Baby…she is just the right kind of character!!
We lost our babygirl, Cassie, in October, to the H1N1 virus. We all had it and she died 4 days later…a heartbreaking 5 months have ensued.
She was a little 8 lb. black and tan smooth mini dachshund..only 8 years old, should have had a good many more left in her..she was a spunky, lovely little thing. My best friend. I miss her. so. much.
