Dogs EAT hats, NOT GOOD. Kittehs just shed all over 'em

This incident did not involve a true hat, but a University of Texas cap my son had.

We were visiting my sister over in Miss. She had two little mini pins and the larger of the two , a stockily built male with plenty of attitude, came marching into the room proudly displaying my son's hat. It took some quick moving to catch him and the cap.

Beautiful shot, Alan.

Beautiful shot, Alan.

Yes, nothing like the affection and devotion of a good dog!

My friend, Terry, came to a pool party wearing a souvenir cap from the US Open golf tournament. He laid it down and my Mexican mutt disassembled it for him in his absence. It was in 3 distinct pieces and several smaller ones when it came time to leave.

Did he disassemble your mutt? I would have

Yeah, I don't put my hats down anywhere a dog might even think about reaching for it.

Absolutely the most moving pic of the week for me!

Moving as it truly clearly shows the love and affection between dogs and their human families. Alan you and Harry obviously had a precious bond. My empathy for your loss and your passionate remembrances.

My wife is a retired DVM and dogs came with our union. I remember with small pains, enormous affection and of course fond reminiscences of the several dogs that have shared and enjoyed life with my family and I before their passing. I never am far from the precious memories of Indira, Mahatma, Tumnsi, Molly, and Osha. For the life of me I could never understand how my wife could deal with the suffering and tragic parts of her chosen profession. She is a stronger person, emotionally, than I when it comes to dogs.

I will have to get some hat and dogs photos! The hat/Alan/Harry pic is grand!

Thanks for sharing Alan and folks, Eric -

I love those old ads from the MAD MEN days where one pictures tells a story!
(I can just see Don Draper making a presentation to the client...)
I almost always wear a hat when walking my two Corgis.

I wish I had a picture of me in a hat with my dog. But I don't and he's gone.

Maybe you need another one?

 

[scottyrocks]

Maybe you need another one?

No, my life is not set up for a dog right now. My memories are good ones. They will have to do.

Thanks for your notes Ale and Eric.

Donna and I have had two dogs over our years together - Ray for 17 years before kids and Harry, after. Once the kids arrived, the dog had to be a dog.There was no room for him on the bed... he slept on the floor, always content to be third fiddle. Harry was a great doggy dog, a patient, gentle giant of a golden retriever. I wish I had more pictures of him with hats that I could share. Unlike everyone else in the family, he didn't much like having his picture taken.

Is he home?

Oh... I see the answer on the other thread. Lovely family portrait... little claws and BIG Claus.
