LOL! Those little dogs are quite full of themselves. They think they are big stuff. Nothing wrong with their self-image! LOL. And I’m sure your little yorkie was trying to protect you, bless her heart. In her mind she was probably thinking “get away from my MOM, or I will tear you limb from limb!!”

[yorkie]

ROTF!!! YES SHE WAS, I am sure!!!

[left that other site]

Oh My! hahahahahahahahahahahahahah

I have fought a good fight,
I have finished my course,
I have kept the faith.

Flowers of the Forest



Black Watch Piper

The Soldier

If I should die, think only this of me:
That there's some corner of a foreign field
That is forever England. There shall be
In that rich earth a richer dust concealed;
A dust whom England bore, shaped, made aware,
Gave, once, her flowers to love, her ways to roam;
A body of England's, breathing English air,
Washed by the rivers, blest by suns of home.
And think, this heart, all evil shed away,
A pulse in the eternal mind, no less
Gives somewhere back the thoughts by England given;
Her sights and sounds; dreams happy as her day;
And laughter, learnt of friends; and gentleness,
In hearts at peace, under an English heaven.

Awwwww, tiapam, that is SO sweet. That little yorkie looks like he is actually crying.

And you even put your own words on it! YAY! You sure have come a long way in three short months on the computer, IMHO!

[potlatch]

[Do you happen to have a picture of Piper ]
Here is one from this past Christmas. He went back in the bedroom and found something in the Christmas decorations that he liked, lol. He came running into the den all happy and proud of himself!

Click on it for a page with a few pictures of him.

[Mama_Bear]

I know! Her fur is all wet! My dogs cry, well....not Chachi, but I've had other dogs that did. They would get big tears in their eyes if they had been bad, or if I hurt their feelings (accidentally, of course).

Yes, Tiapam really has learned fast! She's doing great!

[yorkie]

Potlatch, those pictures are darling, and I love the way you have put them together! (With music, yet!) OMG, it is a GREAT link!!!

I’m sending this to pollywog too, because she is ‘thinking’ about getting a yorkie puppy!

[tiapam]

How adorable he is and happy with “HIS” new found toy! I clicked on the picture, like you said and WOW!!!! Great picture “album” of Piper. Love the paw prints in the background, trains and music,too!!! Thank you so much for sharing!!! Did you happen to see Pos#2131? Lindy(Yorkie’s)and d’Ogee(mine).

[yorkie]

My little Lindy doesn't cry - but she sulks. If she does something wrong (or even thinks of doing something that is verboten (like going potty in the house), she sulks, and slinks off to the back part of the house.

When I see her do that, I grab her, and take her outside immediately, and always tell her I love her.

[potlatch]

Thank you yorkie, glad you like it. Piper is 6 years old already and I made that long ago and haven’t added to it!

devolve made a slideshow of his pictures long ago too;

[potlatch]

Glad you enjoyed it. I love making the pages but neglect to go back and add to them.

I posted the slide show that devolve made, to yorkie. You might enjoy it too. I’ll check out post 2131, thanks.

[potlatch]

Thanks for directing me to the picture tiapam. Adorable dogs, I love them. Also hope Lindy is doing well.

[pandoraou812]

Thanks, I am praying that it does. Then I can just go to the auction myself & buy them & adopt the horses out once I get them healthy & find good homes.

[pandoraou812]

My dogs are so bad , they chase the cats around the house & then the cats chase them. It was funny until they knocked over my candle. I have this little thingy that heats the glass candles up so I don't need a flame & it still scents the room. Well the wax went all over & I am very mad at my brats right now. They are all in hiding. Wax is a pain to clean up too but I got it all up. At least I won't have to use that thing for awhile, it smells strongly of fresh cotton scent....

Wow!

Lotsa Piper Pics there!

I see the Javascript slideshow code is still working -

Amazing Grace

by John Newton

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found;
Was blind, but now I see.
.
’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, .
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!
.
Through many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come;
’Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.
.
The Lord has promised good to me,
His Word my hope secures;
He will my Shield and Portion be,
As long as life endures.
.
Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess, within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.
.
The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, Who called me here below,
Will be forever mine.
.
When we’ve been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we’d first begun.
