Santa Paws and Reindeer Dog

A bit of the snow we got actually stuck!
Which was really lucky, because it meant the Collies got to eat cheese dress up and pose in the snow.
After zooming around the yard, Lassie and Petal got down to cheese earning business by putting up with this:

They were awesome, of course.
Up until Lassie decided that he’d rather work alone.
His reindeer was seriously holding him back.

Thank goodness for cheese or this may have never worked out.

I hope your holidays are spent with loved ones and filled with holiday cheer.

When it’s cold outside…

We like to snuggle up and snooze inside.
Where it’s warm and dry.

Harriet stole my nice warm seat when I left to take pictures of Lassie and Petal.
Not fair.

They earn their keep around here by keeping me toasty warm.
And shooing Harriet off the couch for me. 😉

We’re hoping our day trapped inside will pay off with snow in the morning. We haven’t had snow since this day in November. It’s been snowing a little, off and on, since yesterday, but so far nothing has stuck around for long (except for the mud, ew).
We’re hoping for a blanket of snow to play in tomorrow.
For now, we’re going to go back to sleep.

Petal was actually snoring a few minutes ago.
Adorable.

Hope you all have a fun, warm, and possibly snowy, weekend!

Anything for a biscuit.

My dogs will do anything for a biscuit.

It’s true. The following photos are proof of my truthfulness.

My Collies will do anything for a biscuit.
And some camera time.
Because when you’ve got it, flaunt it.
And when your owner has treats, flaunt it in reindeer antlers…

Let’s meet Santa’s newest reindeers, shall we?

Photobucket
Meet Stud. 
Mr. Stud. 
Mr. Stud The Reindeer.
Santa’s most stunning reindeer.

Photobucket

Meet Santa’s naughtiest (but cutest) reindeer. Santa is always having to bribe her with extra carrots to just fly in a straight line, please!

Photobucket
Now don’t be fooled by the size of this reindeer. She can keep up with the best of them.
She also supplies the reindeer poop for the children who are too naughty for coal.

Photobucket
“Hey Santa, let’s visit my place first this year.”
“Uhh… no, turn around. We’re going the other way first.”

Photobucket
“This way?”
“No, just straight ahead, please!”

Photobucket
“I don’t know where the fun is in that, but if it means an extra dog biscuit, I mean carrot, then fine.”

Photobucket
“I’m a good reindeer, aren’t I? The best of the best.”
“Right you are. Your inflated ego really helps hold up the sleigh!”
“Excuse me?”
“Have a carrot! Ho, ho, ho!”
*grumbling* “I’ll give you a carrot.”

Photobucket
“Look! I’m Lassie and I think I’m sooooo awesome. I’m so awesome I fart glitter! Hehehee!”
“SHUT UP.”
“YOU shut up, Lassie!”
“Quiet down!”
“Sorry Santa.”

This is not the last time you will see these two in antlers.
As long as I have treats, they’ll wear them. 😉
Pepper on the other hand…

Photobucket
“Mom, if you happen to see this, please, please, please,”

Photobucket
“Never send me to stay with these people ever, ever, again! They’re all mad!”

Have a biscuit!
And a lovely weekend!
