M.J.!!!!!!!!!!!!

Holiday Spirit Dog of the Day #6

This post catches us up for there to actually be a dog each day! The Holiday Spirit Dog of the Day for today (18 December 2006) is.....drumroll please...... MISS SUNSHADE!!!

Miss Sunshade just oozes with Holiday Spirit, even tolerating her human dressing her up. But she does look cute, so it isn't all humiliating! Miss Sunshade is a 7-yr-old Airedale Terrier living in Vancouver, B.C., Canada!

Miss Sunshade is a very intelligent dog, who always does what is best for her, like eating her veggies, riding safely in her SunshadeMobile, and never going with strangers! For more of her exploits, check out Life of Miss Sunshade!

We leave you with more pics:

Holiday Spirit Dog of the Day #3*

BOO is our Holiday Spirit Dog of the Day #3!!! Congratulations Boo, well deserved! Boo is a Shih Tzu who lives in Malaysia. He is one of the cutests doggies we know, even when he makes his doofus face. See our blog archives for a slideshow of some of his Glamour shots! Boo is celebrating Christmas with his very own tree (although he would prefer it have real snow on it), and by sending cards to all his friends! Boo is a real charmer with the lady dogs, although even he admits he has a bit of competition in Simba boy...
Boo's birthday is February 23rd. He will be 1-year-old this coming Spring (2007). Boo was named after Jake Gylenhaal's puggle, Boo, who, while admitedly cute, is nowhere near as cute as Shih Tzu Boo! After all, it isn't puggle Boo who is Mr. February on the Dogs With Blogs Calendar #2, now is it???
Congrats again, Boo!

Everyone visit Boo's Diary!

Holiday Spirit Dog of the Day #2

Congratulations to our Holiday Spirit Dog of the Day #2: Joe Stains!! Joey is a Boston Terrier who lives with his "doofus" little brother, Tanner. Joe deserves special mention because he has so much holiday spirit he was even willing to give away young Tanner as a gift! Here he is preparing the box to ship Tanner in:



Joey is such a giver, but he managed to think of three things he might like to receive this Christmas. The top three things on his Wish List are:

1. Doofus out of my house
2. An electric blanket
3. the most gigantic block of cheese you have ever seen in your life

Congrats again, Joe Stains! Visit his blog:

Holiday Spirt Dog of the Day #1

Our new ongoing (until Dec 31, 2006) feature is a spotlight on the "Holiday Spirit Dog of the Day." We will try to add a new dog each day until December 31st, but we might have to add several in one day to catch up if we skip a day.

For our first winner, on 13 December 2006, we have: Kikujira the Shiba Inu!

No, the judges were not biased by her breed, and once you see her picture, we think you will agree with our choice.

Finally, without further ado, may we present, KIKUJIRA!


Kiku is a one-year-old female Shiba living in San Diego, California. She was born with a curvy spine, but doesn't let that slow her down at all! Kiku enjoys sleeping, belly rubs, playing soccer and keep-away, chasing other dogs at the dog park, getting them to chase her, and treats. She is also quite adept at destroying toys. Kiku's wish list for Santa Paws includes: Stuffed toys (to destroy !!), dog biscuits, and a trip to the snow.
