dreaming of spring

January 31st, 2012 Permalink

Winter has been SO messed up this year – by turns cold, occasionally snowy, and then weirdly warm and sweater-free but grey and rainy or cloudy and dull. Case in point: huge amount of snow yesterday, we shoveled twice. Today, it’s expected to be 7 degrees above freezing.

What exactly do you dress a pug in when the weather is so weird? Merry’s been in everything from hoodies (warm days) to full winter gear – t shirt, coat and boots.

Maybe it’s the weather, maybe it’s the seed catalogs that came in the mail yesterday, but I’m dreaming of spring. With that in mind, I share a photo from last spring (pre-eye injury).

Here’s hoping you’re surviving whatever winter weather you’re having!

aren’t I adorable?

Merry, once again “shaking a paw” in exchange for a treat. Note the long tongue in anticipation of said treat. She’s so adorable – and so treat focused – that there are days when I think we could literally teach her anything!

Happy 2012! It’s January – and it’s been a chilly start to the new year. Luckily,  the puglet has many ways of keeping warm: cuddling with humans, wearing fabulous sweaters, and bundling up in Mom’s favourite blanket. Hope your new year has been cuddly warm as well!
