Happy

My dog’s name is Happy, she’s such a joy to me.  Recently the fan on my heater started rattling, so I’ve been turning the heat way down at night.  This is making her curl up in a teeny tiny ball to try to conserve warmth  so I’ve started calling her potato bug.  Or did you call them “pill bugs”?  I was going to add a link here, but they are not as cute as I remember them.

I’m also on a campaign to change the official terminology about button ears on dogs to “drop down menu” ears.  Depending on how she holds them, her ears are perfect black triangles pointing down.  -Katy

    she has a beautiful face and clearly a deep thinker, my dog gets way under the comforter with only the tip of his nose sticking out.

    Me thinks she is a woozle.

    She *is* a deep thinker, thanks for noticing! I think her light brown eyebrows make her particularly expressive. In this photo she’s thinking “why are you crouched on the floor again?”

    I used to foster a beagle who liked to burrow under the comforter like that, so sweet!
