Papa Cosmo, Santa Claws comes tonight, right?

Yes, Little Xena.
Now get some sleep so that you’ll be well-rested and able to bark at Santa when he arrives in the wee hours of the morning.

Why are you leaving us over the weekend, Human Mommy?

Are you mad because I removed a couple of ornaments from our Dogsmas tree?
–Xena
Oh, fire!

You feel so good on my fur.
–Xena
Summer is fading. Yippee yeah!

Winter approaches… Uh-oh…
–Cosmo, as a Puppy, on the clover
I am not a Lapdog!
I am a Sniffing Sentry.

I simply catch the odors better from an elevation.
–Xena
O.M.D.! This show is so boring!

It’s putting us Dogs to sleep!

Can’t you change the channel, Human Daddy? –Xena

Shush, Little Xena! I let you Woofies watch two whole episodes of “Pit Bulls and Parolees” this afternoon.
Now it’s my turn to binge-watch Jackson Galaxy. –Amber
“You have destroyed your last Dog bed!” says Human Daddy. “No more Dog beds for you!”
We could have deployed the Puppy Eyes earlier, perhaps, but sometimes negotiations hinge on timing.
We deployed the Puppy Eyes right after our return from a fabulous, adventurous, EXHAUSTING walk/run.

Now we have an extra-large Papasan chair cushion all to ourselves.
Thank you, Human Daddy.
Thank you, Amazon Prime.
–Cosmo, Xena and Stella
There’s a bug!

A fluttery, frenzied fly right there in the houseplant!

I wonder why the other Guard Dogs are snoozing through the excitement.
–Xena
Eew! What is that atrocious odor?

It’s my Bully Stick, Auntie Amber.

It’s an acquired taste/smell that one acquires while teething.
Want to take a nibble?
–Amber and Xena
Sure, I’m not the biggest Guard Dog. I get that.

Still, I’ve got some good back-up.
