Winter fur

It was always a dilema.

When should Frito get his haircut in the wintertime.

It's starting to get pretty long here.

But it's also so cold outside.

Crazy Dog

Somebody's looking like a psycho dog.

Personally, I'd blame the photographer ;-)

Frito was always a cutie pie, but the camera shutter sometimes caught a funny face.

Frito and Kelly

Frito and Kelly were buddies.

Though that may not be obvious with Kelly showing her teeth.

But I think she just got a bit bothered when Frito kept trying to kiss her.

Yep, they sure were buddies.

Running on the snowy lane

Yes indeedy -- Frito loved the snow.

It's one of the first days of 2007 and Frito loves being outside in the crisp, clean, air.

And running.  He also loved to run.

The finished product

So here I am after my bath and rollin' rollin' rollin'.

Don't I look beautiful? The little tongue tip is just a little bonus ;-)

Oh yeah, and I'm lying in Alpha's bathrobe.

Just like mine -- only bigger and softer.

Bedtime?

OK, now that I've dried off.

And run around like a banshee.

Do you think we can just call it a night and go to bed?

Lookin' regal

You know -- regal like royalty.

Or Alpha says maybe Chivas Regal ... whatever that is. ;-)


Or maybe I look more like a super hero.

Yeah, that's it. A regular crime fighter.

Now where did I put my mask?

Cute in my bathrobe

Good thing the paparazzi aren't around?


Oh wait. There he is. Mr. Paparazzi himself.

Hey, nice touch with the tulip.

On the bathrobe, again

Once again. The hot tub routine continues right into the freezing temps. Those guys are driven, I tell you.

Funny to see them run out to the hot tub in freezing weather.

And then I make Alpha get out of the nice warm water, and into the freezing weather again to let me in.

So I can lie on his bathrobe. Hee hee. I can be such a stinker sometimes ;-)

Hot-tubbing, my way

OK, so here's the deal.

Ya see, my parents often go hot-tubbing early in the morning. I get to go outside with them and run around like a maniac.

But when it's cold, I like to come inside before they are done. This makes Alpha get out of the hot tub, soaking wet, and let me into the basement (hee-hee).

And that's when I get to snuggle up in his nice warm bathrobe (hand made by Mom, thankyouverymuch).

And snooze. Yep, that's hot-tubbing, done my-way.

Blow me over

Woah! That wind is really strong. Wind chill below zero. And I can hardly stop from being blown away.

But hey, I've got lots of fur (er hair, I mean LOTS of hair), and this really nice polar fleece bathrobe, so I'll survive, even if my hairdo is all a tussle ;-).

Plus, at least I'm out for a walk -- that makes everything OK. But still, starting to look forward to spring ;-)
