It’s pretty cute, isn’t it?
I love that little speck and I love that it’s only on that one ear.
But I guess Petal didn’t feel the same way.
I guess she felt mismatched. Ill-assorted. Ill-matched. Clashing. Contrasting.
So she painted her other ear to match.
Please note the white paint on her right ear (your left).
Now that she matches, she couldn’t be happier.
Those of you who follow us on Facebook and/or Twitter may know that this was not Petal’s only paint related mishap.
For those of you who don’t follow us on Facebook or Twitter, you should. 😉
Oh, and I’ll bring you up to speed.
My Mom is painting the family room and the dogs were doing a great job at avoiding the wet paint, up until I put my coat on to leave the house. Petal was hoping she would get to come along too, so she walked through my Mom’s pan of wet paint and left light blue paw prints across the tiled floor of our entry way. One of these days I’m going to wet myself while laughing at this dog.
Since then she has painted her ear, of course, and her mane.
The brilliant little Collie decided to paint her white mane white, so you can’t even tell it’s painted, until you pet her or see the odd texture to her hair.
Crazy pup.
A little heads up: I will be having surgery tomorrow, it’s nothing super serious and I will be home the same day, but I’m not sure when I’ll be back to posting. I’m sure I’ll be up for posting our Wordless Wednesday post, since I already have that ready to go (copy image link to blog post, check), and then hopefully I’ll be back to posting by the weekend.
Have a good week everyone!
And a happy Halloween!
For those of you in Sandy’s path, stay safe.

Are you dressing up for Halloween?

“I’m beautiful, I know.”
Working the runway.
I can’t even begin to tell you how many times this girl has knocked me on my butt after running to me and the camera a little too enthusiastically.
For anyone who might be wondering, I got her skirt at Walmart two years ago for a few dollars, I don’t remember exactly how much it was, but I do remember that I paid no more than $5 for it. It’s actually a child’s skirt, but the waist is elastic and it fits her well. 😉 It also didn’t cost me as much as skirt made for a dog her size might have.
Have you noticed that? That something made for a large dog sometimes costs more than that same thing made for a child?
For example, if I go to the pet section at Walmart the dog bandanas are anywhere from $5-$15.
If I go to the kids section at Walmart I can find bandanas for 50 cents or a $1. Fold them right and they fit my Collies just as well (actually, better) than the pet bandanas do.
I was a very happy girl the day I discovered that. 😉
