dog hair, dog breath, dog paw prints on my pants

my last week in oregon a family t home teaches went out of town. they own three dogs, two bunny-rabbits, and one cat. they offered to pay me quite a good deal of money if i would sleep at their home, feed their animals, and give them all love and attention every day.

it was a spectacular way to finish off the trip. i admit, i didn't give the bunnies all the love they deserved and the cat was a nuisance if i ever knew one! i am not fond of felines. i believe bratty girls are referred to as "catty" for a reason. but i fell in love with the three dogs. two were corgis and one was a german shepherd mix-ish. the corgi on the left looks most like yoda and the corgi on the right looks most like phoebe, and i love them. if i didn't have such a problem with dog hair i would own a corgi.

sundy, however, had a huge problem with the dog hair. she hated to let the dogs near her and it was a hilarious thing to see. dogs that wanted love and attention were denied. don't worry, i showed them love and attention even though sundy couldn't. :)

i love dogs and loved taking care of someone else's ~~ you know how wonderful it is to enjoy a thing then leave it with their owner and go home. great experience.

little girls are made of everything nice

genevieve is the daughter of one of my sundy's friends in oregon. her name fits her perfectly and she's not yet seven years old! she is the epitome of what a little girl should be: a princess! she knows she is a princess, though she doesn't let that translate into a hoity-toity attitude.

i couldn't pass up the opportunity to do a photo shoot of genevieve when she found a toy poodle sitting in a small room outside of the restaurant we were eating at. the dog's name was barbie and she was extremely sweet.

a princess and her pooch

little dogs and little girls make quite the perfect pair.

this made me miss Precious. a lot.
