Christmas Spirit


We are looking after Tate for a few weeks while Jo is in Ontario celebrating Christmas with her whole family!  (Mom, I'm not sure if I mentioned there would be a fifth furry creature in the house... heh heh.  And when I add them up like that it sure sounds like a lot!)


Tate continues to amaze me with how much he has changed.  He is still quiet as a mouse in the house - he doesn't even get up to greet me when I get home - but out on a walk he is fun and fiesty.  The moment we are home again, he runs back to the comfort of our bed.  LOL.


I brought out the Christmas bulb toy as I thought it would make nice photos with the snow.  I was a little worried he wouldn't play with it as he is more of a soft toy kind of guy, but he loved it.


It was a little slippery though and he kept dropping it.  Then he'd stand there and bark at me to come get it to throw it again.  I guess some things never change.


Tate is always so fun to have around because I always get lots and lots of compliments about how beautiful he is.  No one ever says that when they meet my dogs!  ;)


Jo loves her photos so I'm sure there will be many more of this handsome guy over the next few weeks... until he starts looking like he needs a groom anyway.  ;)  Hey Jo, did you notice I took off his collar?  Just for you!  Hope you guys are having fun, drinking lots of wine and having lots of laughs!
