Winnie's Gotcha Day

Three years ago, a friend shared this photo on Facebook.  As soon as I saw it, I knew that this tiny, geriatric little dog was supposed to be ours.




Winnie's appearance has changed a lot since then.

Day one with us.


A recent photo.


What hasn't changed is her feisty attitude, and amazing spirit.


Barking at the doorbell.


Surveying her yard.


Reluctantly modeling her Christmas sweater.


I credit these changes to good food, lots of love, and giving her the chance behave like a dog.

Leaving the spot that I swept for her, to go poop in the snow.


Barking, again.


Walking at Hollywood Cemetery.  "Stop taking pictures and come on, Mom."


Rolling on something 'fragrant'.


I never saw myself as the type of person who could have a little dog.  Winnie changed this, with her big dog personality in that little dog body.







Happy Gotcha Day, Winnie!

(As I was gathering these photos, I was amazed at number of sweaters in Winnie's wardrobe.  All of these are knit from a pattern that I designed, available for free HERE.)
