1. After 8 days apart, did I miss this funny little face?
YOU BETCHYA!  Reunions with Winnie are the best!  No other being on this planet is ever so excited to see me, even after just a couple of hours apart, but especially so after many days apart.
Dogs are the best!

    After 8 days apart, did I miss this funny little face?

    YOU BETCHYA!  Reunions with Winnie are the best!  No other being on this planet is ever so excited to see me, even after just a couple of hours apart, but especially so after many days apart.

    Dogs are the best!

  2. The last video I posted on WTZT was a compilation of footage I took of Winnie with her yorkie friend Minnie.  This is what happened while I was editing the video.  To say Winnie misses her little friend is an understatement.

  3. Winnie always gives her Daddy a proper greeting after not seeing him all day.  In  this case she’s in her bed on the ledge of my bath (which I am in).  I think she likes licking his arms & legs so much because they are so hairy, just like her!

  4. “Are you certain I can’t come with you, Mommy?  I can fit in this here bag, honest!”
It is never easy to leave my girl to go on a trip, even a really exciting trip like this one.  My heart ached for her every day I was gone.  I felt a lot better knowing she was in good hands being taken care of by Aunt Julie.  Still, that didn’t mean I missed her any less.  Don & I would look over at each other periodically throughout the day & just say “Winnie” in a little voice, make sad faces, and share photos of her on our phones.  Love that girl to BITS!

  5. I used to get my nails done at my house every week by a nail tech (otherwise known as my “nail lady”), and Winnie would often cozy into the meditation cushions I laid out for my nail lady for the pedicure portion of our weekly visits.  I always said Winnie was warming my nail lady’s spot up for her.  Well, my nail lady and I have since parted ways (LONG story), but seeing this picture reminded me how nice it was to have my pup around while I was getting my nails done.  I still do, because I have been doing my own nails since this summer, but it’s different when someone else is doing them for you, you know?  I wonder if Winnie misses her.  She always thinks that everyone who comes to our house is there to see her and her alone.
