Just in case you didn't, here it is: *clears throat* People of Vancouver, Please be advised that we are, apparently, skipping over summer. We're just going to go straight to winter, as requested by your ginger/fair-skinned populace and skiing fanatics. Sincerely, Mother Nature.
I am not happy about this rain. I know, I know: you say that flowers need water and so forth, and that lakes need refilling, but I NEED A TAN.
That's not a self-absorbed comment at all, is it? :P
Anyhoo, rest assured your puppies were well-entertained today, which spares you, dear dog guardians and avid dog blogees, from having to pull out funky-smelling raingear from storage and exercise Fido or Fifi in downpour. YES, it's a downpour.
Enjoy the pics. Excuse me while I get my snuggie and hot chocolate on.
-Dog Blogger #2 out.

Bechler's face is priceless. Really, you don't even need the glasses for comedic effect, but I thought I'd try it out. He was thoroughly unimpressed, so he was amply rewarded with treats. Also kisses. He didn't like the kisses - he'd scrunch up his face as if I was your Great Aunt Edna. Didn't stop me, mind.
****
This is Bechler's baby sister. Her ears, as you can see, are also priceless. Also, when she runs, it's not unlike a leapfrog-bunny-skip. Which looks as exactly as it sounds: adorable.

You opened the dictionary, and you looked for the definition of "TERRIER", and lo and behold: this picture was there. Dearest Harriet.

I love the look of Cody's paws and fur after a good jaunt in the rain. His lovely coat becomes curlier and, dare I say it, cuter.
****
I don't know what Rocco's doing here, but it makes me giggle. Rocco, you silly.
****
So, Mother Nature, THIS IS WHY UMBER AND I DO NOT WANT IT TO RAIN ANYMORE.
Observe exhibit A:

Only dogs can pull off wrinkled noses. If I were to wrinkle mine, you'd think I was feeling nauseated, but Rico makes is quintessentially cute. <3

This is Zuzu's profile pic for the K9 dating site, Plenty of Dog Dish. Prrrretty snazzy.

Obligatory snap of dogs in raincoats. Hellishly cute. Obligatory shameless promotion: they're only $25 (the coats, not the dogs.)
****
Another obligatory snap of a dog in a raincoat. Because puppies in clothes equals FUN.
(Fun for us. Not so much for Hugo).

GROUP PHOOOOooOOTo:
Who rocks more than your dogs and us? No one. Maaaaybe Oprah and the Sedins.
Also, Liam Neeson (Dog Blogger #2 gets a little light-headed. Tall Irish men with a good brogue? YES, PLEASE).

Alright, my lovelies, have a splendid weekend.
