F-f-f-five Hundred

Five hundred! Five hundred. FIVE. HUNDRED! 

(yes, I'm going to insert a brief thank-you speech, not unlike something you'd encounter on the Emmys, so please, humour me for a few seconds :P)

Firstly: to our amazing - FANTASTIC! TERRIFIC! FANTASTERRIFIC! - clients: 

Have we thanked you for being so awesome? If not, here it is: Thank you. You all have made our lives infinitely better. 

Secondly, to Nigel: 500? Seriously? Wow. That is dedication. You receive a gold star, and your commemorative plaque? It's in the mail. 

Thirdly, to the Small Paws team: We rock. Unequivocally. To us!

So, my dearest internet denizens, I shall see you, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, from the blue-paneled pages of facebook. Onwards and upwards!

-Dog Blogger #2 out.

Honestly, Zoe is trying to gnaw off Yogi's leg here, and he endured with the patience of a saint. A JEDI saint. 

****

Frodo sans his trademark Jack-o-lantern grin. Both mugs are pretty darned cute, though :)

****

Four words that encapsulate the fervor with which I love my job? 

Puppies. With. Panda. Ears. 

**** 

...Or I could've selected: Puppies. With. Floral. Berets. 

That would've worked just as well :)

****

Dear World: Please continue to populate with world with Labs and Shepherd mixes; I don't want the secret of the sheer AWESOMENESS of Italian Greyhounds to ever get out. I want them all for myself, thank you.

**** 

This is pretty much what happens when (a) Nigel goes away; or (b) I remind Ruby that he's a happily married man.

**** 

Squeeeee! And you thought that she couldn't get any cuter, right? WRONG. 

**** 

Dearest Max. Can you, cybernetizens of the world, see how doe-eyed this wee pooch is? Honestly, his gaze could melt buttah!

**** 

This is my kooky-artistic-expressive-photo-that-doesn't-really-express-anything-concrete photo. I just like it. Snuggles does, too. 

**** 

...It's a little absurd at how many bromances Rocco has. Tyson has, pretty much, the biggest big-bro crush on   Rocco. 

**** 

Vinny wants to make out. Problem? He's not a ball that can be fetched and chewed. Sorry, buddy.

**** 

Such foxy ears. Such a little foxy face. I <3 this dog. 

**** 

Speaking of foxy faces: how happy would you be to find this peering from underneath your door? 

Damn, Zoey: YOU? You cute. 

**** 

And because I can: here's another pic!

(Kaia and Zoey were patiently waiting for their walk)

**** 

Ah, the Dawson and Joey of our time - the paradoxical best-friends-but-possibly-more duo of Rosie and Mr. Bentley.

**** 

Henry is happiness personified. Dogified. Happiness in a fur coat. 

**** 

Aaaand the five hundredth class photo.
