Three Little Reindeer...

Well sort of... it was my plan to photo our three (yes-three-meet Charlie tonite!)- adorned with tiny reindeer antlers...What a nite! I really don't know why I thought 1. They would want to wear these little "antlers", 2. They would cooperate and sit still---ALL TOGETHER, and 3. I now give animal photographers all the kudos in the world!!!!

Charlie...

First meet Charlie- a darling little rescue that came to us last week. Sad story-- a family left him to fend for himself when they were forced out of their home from a foreclosure...neighbors fed him, but he soon got sick and someone called the animal control to pick him up.

Luckily he was placed in an amazing hospital- nursed back to health- AND a LOUD call from an angel named Eileen from the Kingsbrook Animal Hospital went out to "SAVE" this special little dog... I took one look at his picture-and fell in love...we had to act fast before he went back to the animal control because he was looking at certain death....tomorrow we sign the "official" papers- because he is now in his FOREVER home. We love Charlie and so do our granddaughters, & our other rescues Bella~ Cinderella & Sweet Sam. Bella sniffed Charlie's antlers...ummm are these real?

Bella rather liked them....lots of treats involved...

Sam & Charlie (I think Charlie is laughing!)

Anyway it was fun trying to get a group picture-

Maybe next year...I should be wrapping- I haven't wrapped ONE present yet....better get going.... I hope everyone has a safe, healthy, and wonderful holiday!!!!!

Charlie is soooo handsome and the luckiest doggie in the whole wide world to be adopted by you! (If you ever want to adopt a human, I'm first in line, OK? ;) )

Those are some hilarious photos of you trying to get them to be reindeer! And yes, indeed, Charlie is laughing - so am I. LOL!

Likewise to you: have a very safe, healthy, and Merry Christmas!

Ohh... what a wonderful Christmas present, a new little one to love! Charlie is absolutely adorable. I thought it was hard to take pictures of two, but throw in the the third one (and mine is so active right now!) and it's nearly impossible, except when they are sleeping!

Have an absolutely wonderful holiday!

By next year your three little reindeer will be used to the antlers and sit just perfectly for pictures.

Gigi you are an inspirtation to me. Now where did I put that Santa hat...think it would look stunning on the cat. After all my husband had nothing to do today and decorated her tent!

God bless.

Oh how sweet Carrie! We were thinking about taking a Malamute from some friends who are moving, but I just don't think I can handle it at the moment. = (

I haven't wrapped a single present either. I'd better get moving! We're getting completely snowed in at the moment so maybe I can some wrapping.

I am cracking up at those cutie pups in their Christmas best!!

Max is staring at Bella as I write. He thinks she is stunning! *He's right!*

Merry, Merry Christmas C~G!! From under 30 inches of new fallen Vermont snow, Max & I are sending lots and lots of holiday love! xoxo Heather

They all look great in their holiday antlers. So cute!!!

Carrie,
I laughed out loud when I read this post b/c a couple of years ago I put a Christmas hat and sweater on Petey and he was not a happy cat! He would not sit still for the camera at all. So I gave up and settled for a handful of blurred shots most with my hand under his chin trying to keep his head still. ;)
I hope you are having a Merry Christmas!
