Cutie dog

I have such a cute dog. Ok, everyone thinks their dog is cute, right? But really, how can you not fall in love with a little dog that looks like an Ewok from Star Wars? All she needs is a brown hoodie and she's all set to play in the next George Lucas episode!

She's no spring chicken, though. Even though at times she still acts like a puppy, she sleeps a lot more. This year, she didn't even want to play in the snow as much as she did in years past. I guess she feels the cold more, because when she goes out, she's quite ready to come back in quickly.

We don't have carpet in the house (she's like a hair grenade and carpet would just collect it too much), so she lays on a couple of old sheets I've folded up for her, right in front of the sofa. I looked at pet beds for her, but in the past she never wanted to use one. I wound up throwing the last one away. But, she's perfectly content to snooze on the folded sheets. They help insulate her from the chilly floor so she never shivers.
