cute dogs – The Life of Things

Weston Turns 9

Today is our buddy’s 9th birthday. I can’t believe the little man is 9 already. He came to us when he was just 6 weeks old. He was very young, very feisty, curious, strong willed, and very loving. Not much about him has changed since then. He’s brought so much joy to us, so muchContinue reading “Weston Turns 9”

Weston

Today is our little mister’s 8th birthday. Currently he’s curled up in the chair in the corner of our living room sleeping. He’s as cute as he’s ever been. I love him so. Our boy has brought so much joy, love, happiness, and adventure into our lives. He is very affectionate, mischievous, hellaciously smart, loving,Continue reading “Weston”

Seven

Our boy turns seven today. Seven years of love and snuggles and play and joy and laughter and smiles and exasperation and sweetness and tail wagging and pawing and cuddle-time and barks and bullies and deep soulful looks. Happy birthday little man, we love you so.

7:24 AM

7:24 AM I wake up, suddenly. I feel like someone is staring at me. I turn over slowly and there he is, a small furry little fella with big brown eyes sitting over me looking down. His eyes say everything he can’t speak. I’m half awake and tell him no. Gently at first… no buddy,Continue reading “7:24 AM”

Oregon Odyssey – Day Two

Today was a long day on the road. By choice we went an extra bit today so we could have a short day tomorrow. More time in Santa Fe when we get there. Because today was so long we didn’t do much stopping. Gas, food, rest stops, and just two extra little stops. One atContinue reading “Oregon Odyssey – Day Two”

Pups

Pups, originally uploaded by Tokenhippygirl. The pups love camping. Weston is on his lead here, but he got to be off of it. They both did. They were worn out by the time we got home. Two hikes in one day just about did the little souls in. They made it though, and actually wantedContinue reading “Pups”

Getting a Drink

Getting a Drink, originally uploaded by Tokenhippygirl. We went into Sisters one day for a couple of hours while we were over camping. It was a bit warm. Weston, who never drinks out of “other” bowls, drank. It was a first. This particular shot was taken outside a great gallery in Sisters. We love thisContinue reading “Getting a Drink”

Where’s Riley?

Where’s Riley?, originally uploaded by Tokenhippygirl. The little girl likes to be up in the addition when Karen is up there. So cute. i took several pictures of her today. I have to post some of them.

Out For A Walk

Out For A Walk, originally uploaded by Tokenhippygirl. The dogs love going for walks. So much to smell, so much to see, people to greet (and bark at depending on which dog you are), loads of stuff to pee on. It’s a grand grand thing going for a walk is.

Little Miss

Little Miss, originally uploaded by Tokenhippygirl. Riley had never been camping before. I think she liked it. Chipmunks to chase, sleeping in a sleeping bag, running around off leash, barking at anyone who walked in her vicinity. She had a blast.

Weston

Weston, originally uploaded by Tokenhippygirl. Here he is… the handsome boy looking intently at Karen’s slice of pizza hoping for a bite. He ended up with a couple of pieces of sauceless crust. As did the little girl. What can we say… we’re suckers for the looks they give us.

Lovin’ The Street Fair

Lovin’ The Street Fair, originally uploaded by Tokenhippygirl. Riley was, again, a pretty good girl with the crowds yesterday. She got a bit overwhelmed and had to be carried when we wandered around in the dense thick of it, but she didn’t bark very much and she was pretty brave. She’s taking a break inContinue reading “Lovin’ The Street Fair”

What’s Over There?

What’s Over There?, originally uploaded by Tokenhippygirl. This is Weston at Hondo Dog Park looking through the fence over to where the big dog area is. He might have been fancying himself as a big dog, but he’d never make it over there. He loves big dogs, but when he’s with them he spends mostContinue reading “What’s Over There?”

Little Girly, originally uploaded by Tokenhippygirl. She is so darn cute. And so is her milk mustache. Simply… adorable.

Peeking

Peeking, originally uploaded by Tokenhippygirl. Weston has been to Hondo a few times. Most of the time he’s sort of been like the little kid who is so shy they stand on the sidelines, waiting to be noticed or picked. We always sort of felt bad for him and tried to encourage him to getContinue reading “Peeking”
