A Growing Girl

Well Friends, it was chilly again this morning (30 degrees in Azrizona!) and Muzzer was back on walkies detail.

Gotta tell you, she is a lot more alert at that hour than Dad, and usually in a better mood too! So, she decided that it would be a good day for Teka to wear her pink coat, and I could wear my sweater. (Teka ate hers, remember?)

So, we tugged and pulled and got me into my sweater. Then it was time to put on Teka's pink coat. Muzzer put it around Teka's neck and fastened it under her pointy little chin. Then she smoothed out the saddle part, and took the little belt thingy, and attempted to make it meet under Teka's mid section.

Ooops! It no longer fits! Teka has gained some weight since Travis left. Probably pining for her heart-throb and eating her way through her grief. TeeHeeHee! I told her I wasn't eating all my dog food. Now she knows I was truthing.

Admittedly this is not one of those customized numbers from Snitchy Bug like our friend Maggie has. It came from the big red bulls eye place. But the label says "SMALL" and we thought Teka should be a SMALL dog. She's a Jack Russell, right? All those chart things say that Jack Russells are SMALL dogs. The little coat fit her when she wore it for her picture with Travis. And she still has a nicely defined waist, and no chubby cheeks or fat tail. Muzzer is per-plexed.
And, we have a nice little pink and white dotty coat for a small dog in need of one. But it better be very, very, very small. Or maybe it will fit a nice female hamsterrier friend of FuFu.

That's our adventure for today folks. Gotta go bark at the cat across the street.

She's a gangly teenager! Next come the high heels and makeup.

Uh-oh. Maybe you can get muzzer to measure Teka so I can make her something that fits.
