Snuggles and Teets

Well hey mom & dad! As you've heard, I'm losing my hair. Only the pretty white stuff though. The crazy top hair is totally fine. Apparently I'm the "lil monkey butt" now. Whatever. That doesn't sound pretty at all!

Anyway, the cold weather we're having makes us all CRAZY-hyper. Between me, Ra, Cinco de Miles, & Angel, we have a regular zoo in the yard!! It's a blast. We chase each other in circles. I'm BY FAR the fastest. SOmtimes, though, I get called in for playing too rough when Angel's over. She's such a bitch! Oh how I adore legal, legitimate cuss words! (that's me, Abbey, btw, not Tica. Hee hee...)

So back to me... well here's some photos for your enjoyment. First is me with Tal & Teresa. This was initially taken with the intention of provoking you to jealousy, so that you would come back home soon!! We miss you!! But it turned into me just snuggling up to Mrs Teresa for the long haul. Sweet peeps, those Princes.

And this is my "Say Cheese!!" shot. Hope you love it cuz I was trying to take a nap.

And below is my new bestest bud. Wilson & I have become very close, as he is home most of the days while the other boys are at school. He's a kind boy and I like him alot. I also tolerate him well too. :)

This next one is typical Wilson clowning around during "nap time" with me (as if I got a lick of sleep) but what a ham!!

And last but certainly not least, this is Wilby counting my teets. That's right. He discovered that I had some "dots" on my belly. He then lifted his own shirt and said (to his mom ) "these aren't noo-noos, mommy! There's only suppossed to be two. So these aren't her noo-noos! She just has alot of dots on her tummy. But no noo-noos."

So there you have it...

And below is just a simple reminder of me in my sleepy, snuggly position. (nose to ankle)

And let me just say, if I were in Taiwan, I would snuggle you to pieces cuz I miss you!! But since I'm here, I will think of you while I snuggle the 3 little boys instead. (And my foster mom of course, but only when its safe to sneak into their bed... after foster dad is snoring, that is. It's all in the timing.)Anyway, I love you mucho mucho mucho amore'!!!

Your little stinker,

Love is in the Air...

Oh my gosh, mom & dad!! You will not believe what all has happened since last I posted. I totally have a boyfriend! I know, right? And he's so cute!! He's tall, dark and very handsome. A gentle giant, as some might say. We're keeping him for our friend Sybil for a few weeks while they move. He's an outside dog while I am an inside princess. But either way, he's totally such a sweetie!! I know in the past I've been scared of big dogs, but sooo not this one. He's very calm and kind. And he likes me.

So anyway, like here's some photos of us... me & Ra (like the sun god) So dreamy...

Our first meeting. He's so well-mannered and humble. It's like he totally bowed to my princessness.

Oh! And did you totally see my new pink collar? I lost some"bling" in the old one, and it just wasn't going to do. (Not with the new fella and all... one must look her best!) And I have a new pink heart tag to match w/current info in case I ever go too far. It's so diva and like totally awesome. (But don't worry m&d.... we kept the old one just for you!! :) )

So back to Ra... like every thing's cool, right? Like I totally have a boyfriend and I'm all like"the S*@!"and whatever and I'm totally diggin Ra and we're like smelling each other's butts and stuff...

Except... guess who has to come get all up in my business???? Exactly! The neighbor's dog! I mean, I totally like her and everything, but she SO tries to steal Ra's attention. I try to bark and play with her but she totally goes straight over to him. "Uum, Hello?? I thought we were BFFs?" Whatever. She's not even like a challenge to play with or anything. I totally take her out and stuff. She's lame at running and wrestling and everything in the universe.

So here's Ra trying to take a handsome picture and Angel totally had to get her head in the shot. She thinks just because she's equally black AND white and I'm more white than anything else, that she can totally have my black man. Whatever. True love sees no color.

Oh this is a good one. It's the butt-sniffing train... Chugga chugga...Pew!! Pew!!!! (Ha. I kill me.)

And this is us on the porch.

And this is us in the kitchen.

I sometimes whimper and my foster mom lets Ra in for a visit. **sigh**

Ra + Tica = true love 4-ever! Are we the cutest or what??? I totally love and miss you both but I'm so enjoying my new friend. We stare at each other through the kitchen window. He lets me drink out of his water bowl. And he's an older man too... Oh I could just go on & on, but I must go sleep since it's like constantly my bedtime.

I love you!!

Manipulation and Lingerie

Let me just cut to the chase here. My foster mom made a video of me & Wilby in a rather pathetic attempt to try and manipulate you into letting them keep me.

So before I say too much, watch for yourselves. It's all just so sad, really.

See what I mean??

Now on to these other shots. Well, mommy and daddy... eerrr, well I think they speak for themselves actually. I mean, come on! My foster mom leaves me alone in the ENTIRE upstairs while she keeps baby Sara. And well... girls will be girls, right?

I hope you're not disappointed in me, but I found this particular strapless to fit me quite nicely. It has fantastic support, and it's extremely comfortable. Oh~ and don't mind my awkward face expression in the first pic. At first glance, one would think this to be the result of a stupid human's "forcing" of a bra over a dog's head while telling her to "SIT"! & "STAY"!, all the while snapping photographs left and right (while I tilt my head in a quizzical "huh?...you have a cookie?" type manner for the second shot.) But don't be deceived, intelligent parents! Oh no. I tried this stretchy strapless on all by myself. And don't I look pretty? That's exactly what happened. "Cinco de Me-O de Strapless de Bra-O". And I do realize what I just said, mom. My foster mom's wretched, child-like Spanish is rubbing off on me. (Not to mention her "stretching of the truth") But anyway.

Well, ta ta for now! I wish you could smell my doggy goodness as I'm all curled up (nose to back ankle) in my sleepy position. :)

But I'm in good hands, as you know. (Well, good hands... yes. Insane.. uum, maybe another post.)

But just know that I've been behaving like a puppy dog goddess... licking faces when appropriate, doing gobs-o-tricks (much to the delight of any newcomer) and just being the all-around bestest and cutest dog ever in the world. The neighbor's dog is a flea-bag compared to me. She can't even tackle me. Or keep up with me. Or beat me in anything.

Well, anyway I miss you!

Love your Stinker,

Primp My Dog

Like a lamb to the slaughter...




Yea, yea, yeah... always a funny shot.





Wait, hold up... he's rubbing the ears. Aahhhhhhh!!




And Yes, mom & dad. Those are pink bows in my hair.



What? You're the ones who left me here with this crazy woman!

Me love you long time,

Your "primped out" Stinker,
