It looks like you had a very good time with your human sissie. And it looks like everything was very tasty.

And of course you look beautiful in your pearls too!

It sounds like all furbodys are having a ball at Mango's, all that drink flying about. No wonder you have to come home for a rest. I have heard it is becoming infamous all around the world. All furbodys are talking about it.

A girl's gotta have her pearls! At least, that's what Mom says.

And no doubt, they will prove to be pearls of wisdom when it comes to declaring a terrier the Best in Show at Mango Minster. Errr, I mean, may the best dog win!

Your pal,

Petey

Alastriona, The Cats and Dogs said...

We loves you & your Mommy's matching pearls. Us girls thinks we should get some to match our Mommy's. The boy beans and us furries try to help Mommy with her overeating but she growls at us. Something about she is going to starve to death with the little bit of food we leave her. We hasn't a clue what she is talking about. ~AFSS
