Aren't those the Personality Pups! I love their little expressions .... so individual! They remind me of when I had two little Shih Tzu's ..... Max and Murphy. Murphy was a thoroughbred, but was one of those "throwbacks" that exhibit all the quirky behaviors from inbreeding. He exhibited a lot of "obsessive/compulsive" behavior, like the night I invited him to come up on the sofa beside me, but he had to run around the coffee table nine times before he felt brave enough to make the leap! Miss him so much .... he died a year ago in May .... but little Max keeps life interesting for me. He sleeps in my closet in his basket, but some nights I'll hear a little snorting & snuffling, and when I turn on the light, he's sitting up begging to get on my bed, all alone in the dark. Love that little guy. I'm amazed at the number of quilters who have pets. Anyone want to psychoanalyze us?
