OMG doggie booties. I mean, I get it. But, doggie booties!! Cute.
Ben: I didn't ask for any of this. I just want to be normal. Gronx: I wanted to be an underwear model. We play the hand we're dealt.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
My niece, who was always in dresses, couldn't crawl because her legs got all tangled up. So, she started using the Bear Walk, with her feet and hands both flat on the ground. She got around like that for a few months before she got up the nerve to stand upright.

Not just any doggie booties, but Muttluks!. They were vital to keep her toesies from getting all torn up from the broken granite that we were hiking on.

I wonder if the rescue dogs my dad works with have booties. They are bassets, I think? Mainly the work he does with them is lifting them in and out of helicopter (so they get used to it and don't freak out.) The image strikes me as hilarious.
lori, not Bev, but yep.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Yup, lori, Mr. Three-Claw is a Tripod. Or TriCycle, any number of name combinations. He answers to TC. Or Swee'pea, or Pea, or hey!
He does not, however, know Heeeere, kitty, kitty, kitty, because he hasn't been outside since we brought him home, and we have no need to call him. He's usually Right There.

There's a picture of a basset with muttluks on the Muttluks site. Bear practically wore hers out after a couple backpacking trips in the Sierra, and Kuma's looked unused. Freakish zero-gravity dog.

Ah ha! I remembered correctly! Good to know.

I love the pics of Bear and Kuma--especially Bear's smile. Kuma's a jindo? Akita? What is Bear?
And the talk today of curled-tail dogs made me wonder if Gus Pong and his kind have curled tails.

Muttluks! See, that's just... cute. No way around it.
Yeah, the terrain in the picture looked Muttluks-worthy. Muttluks. Hee.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I saw a pair of basset hounds the other day. Man, those are just not city dogs. Can't walk fast enough for the traffic and too big too pick up. They just looked silly.
