Molly & her new friend Miss Piggy!

 I went to W*lmart yesterday & while I was in the dog food aisle picking out treats I heard a strange "snorting" noise.  I looked up & there was a 2-3 year old girl with her Mom & she had this pig in her hand.  I knew immediately I had to have it for Molly.....she just loves all squeaky toys!  As I stood there wondering how I could accomplish my mission without a scene several thoughts went through my mind.  Like "Enough browsing lady let's just move along!"  or "I am not above wrassling your kid for that toy!"  I decided to try a wait & see strategy & continued shopping.  I couldn't believe I had to go back 4 times before she finally left that aisle! Thank goodness the toy was still there so I was able to snag it.
 "Hello there.  Who might you be?"
 "How about if I bite your head!"
It is truly the most obnoxious noise you ever want to hear but Molly just love, loves, loves it & will not stop biting on it so it snorts!

Popster put down his Kindle with a big sigh last night....he couldn't concentrate on reading with the noise she was making!

I had it plopped in my lap at 6:00am this morning....I guess it was worth it!

Designer "doggy uggs"

Poor Molly has been having a hard time already this winter with the snow. She has good size pads on her feet which are "webbed" like a lab's foot.  When she goes in the snow it builds up in between her pads & forms a hard piece of almost ice-like snow.  Then she holds her foot up for someone to pull it out.  I decided to make her her own boots. Jessica had spent the night here as we went to First night for new years....more on that later.....so we "googled" how to make dog boots & then modified it to work for Molly.  Keep in mind these were boots you could make in 10 minutes.  It took approx 10 mins to measure Molly's feet.  Two hours later here's the results I did decide to make her 2 for each foot figuring she would be like any typical kid & lose a couple here & there. We had to go to W*lmart in the middle of the project to get velcro to make the fasteners.  We then made her wear them around the house for a while ...

Liza's treat ball

This is one of the most important things in our house - it is Liza's treat ball! I bought this about 9 or 10 years ago & it had a "trap door" where the gaping hole is & when you put treats in it you could control how easily they would fall out as the ball rolled around. Liza learned that if she rolled it down the stairs the treats would usually fall out which is why it looks this way. I have tried super glue etc. but it never stays together! It is sadly beaten & broken but try as I may I have never been able to find another one like it. I have spent hours looking & have bought many similar but nothing will ever take it's place. She knows where it is almost all the time - usually keeps it in her bed - but when it's missing she just paces the house until someone helps her find it. She used to be able to hold it in her mouth like this by just hooking it onto her eye tooth Now she just puts her bottom jaw into the opening like this There is a rit...
