Tolerance is her Middle Name




Annie puts up with so much in this household.

She listens to the boys make music.











She helps them with their Home Depot building projects.






She puts up with a lot.








And has worn many hats.












And the newest fashion accessory she tried on yesterday were:

Cowgirl boots!









I swore I'd never be one of those people who dress up their pets.

Well, guess I lied.

We dress her up, but we don't let her leave the house like that.

    In the last picture, Annie looks just a little worried. :)
    She really is a sweet thing.

    I love Annie.

    Looks like she wasn't too sure about the cowboy boots, though!

    Oh, the cruelty of putting your poor, beautiful dog in cowboy boots! She must have been SO mad at you after that!

    Justine :o )

    I like the second to the last one where she is looking up at the person standing next to her like "you have got to be kidding me!" She is such a great dog to put up with all that.

    I don't think she is liking the indignity of it all. Especially when you hog tied her :-)

    That's one easy going baby !!!!

    When I try to dress my two up...

    Sparky just gives me that look and buries his head under the pillows or whatever ... or just does the floppy 'dead dog' thing.

    Meesha shakes furiously until whatever flies off her or slips underneath her. Then she joins Sparky in the 'dead dog' posture..

    Proper party poopers, those two !!!

    You have music in your house! Our drummer moved out just over a year ago (he's 20, it was time) and I miss the drums so much! Actually he was several instruments, but I miss the drums the most.

    She does look like a wonderfully patient and sweet pet. The 3rd shot in the hat is a great portrait.

    Remember when I wanted your father or father-in-law to come live with me? Can I change my request to Annie? Think about it.
