Two for the price of one!

This year Mini added a sailor dress to her collection of costumes.  She wore it to one nursing home for Halloween and then to another for Veterans' Day.  She was a big hit both days, but it was clear that it was the veterans' celebration that her friends enjoyed the most.

I am blessed to be an American and blessed to have found Miss Mini.

Corny Dogs!

Normal Cornfest time and the rat dogs were out in style.

 

Here is Shoebert in his "I'm so Corny" shirt.

 

 

 

Here is Minibert dressed like an ear of corn.
Mini, your tongue is as long as your ears!

 

And just in time for the Normal Zombie Walk, Hilbert's Zombie Day is on sale at Amazon for the Kindle and Kindle reading apps.

 

And while you are out on Amazon, please buy How Not to Kiss Your Dog, and learn if dogs' mouths are really cleaner than humans.  More books bought equals more kibble for the rat terriers.

 

 



Nude celebrity pics leaked!

By now, everyone has heard the news about celebrity nude pics being hacked from Apple's iCloud.  Well, just like her favorite "Big Bang Theory" actress, Kelly Cuoco, Miss Mini has decided to bare all publicly - in a PG fashion.

Last week in the heat, Mini stripped down to just a plain collar and harness as she went on one of her visits.  She looked so different being nearly naked, that her friend asked me, "Is she the same dog?"  No, of course not.  As we all know, how we dress has a lot to do  how we act and feel.  And Miss Mini was feeling wild and free!

She was feeling so wild, in fact, that she decided to bare all and then post the nude pictures right here!

Way to go, Miss Mini!  Nude, but not crude!

Celebrating the Fourth of July Rat Terrier Style!

In the United States of America, the fourth of July is a day of celebration.  This day marks the anniversery of the date that the USA declaired independence from the British.  It is also the traditional day to celebrate freedom in general.  What better way to celebrate than a ride in the convertible to the dog park!

Shoebert enjoys his ride!

Mini Enjoys hanging with the big dogs

Knee high corn?  Knee high to whom, Marmaduke?

Uh, Mini, I think you've got on the wrong shirt!

Miss Mini and the mystery of the moving bed

Miss Mini was on her usual Saturday afternoon nursing home visit this week showing off her new pink satin dress. While there, she snuggled up in bed with her friend Jack. As Jack and I chatted, the was a humming noise followed by a suprised "OH!" from Jack.  I asked what was wrong and Jack said the bed had moved. It looked the same, so we ignored it. A few minutes later, the same thing happened. Huhmmm, just what was this mystery hum?  After some detective work, we realized that Mini was lying on top of the control for Jack's adjustable bed!

If you look closely, you can see the control.  

Jack is using his hand as a pillow so Mini's chin won't have to touch the cold rail!

Miss Mini in her new pink satin doggie dress.

Mini loves it when I dress her, because it means a trip to visit Jack and her other friends!

Spring is back to Normal

Finally the long winter is over (maybe, we hope).
