Today was our Ojai Doxies monthly meetup which happened to fall on Valentine’s Day. It was fun and we took lots of wonderful pictures that I look forward to editing and sharing with y’all tomorrow. In the meantime, here’s the group shot and one of Rufus, Emily, Lily and their human (me). Hope your day was a great one and stay tuned for more cuteness to come.

The countdown to Valentine’s Day continues, and we recently went around town with our heart antennas to spread some holiday cheer.  We got lots of oohs, aahhs and big smiles as people walked by. Enjoy the photos friends.

I am obsessed with these heart antlers. I just think my precious hounds look even more darling in them, and they’re superstars in my mind because they were such wonderful sports about it. But of course, they were also rewarded handsomely with treats for their time and patience so… I don’t think they mind it too much. What do you think friends?!?

The heart bubbles were inspired by the infamous Brach’s conversation heart candies. I couldn’t decide it I loved the heart bubbles or not, so let me know what you think!?? They also seem to get more plentiful as my edit went on. Valentine’s Day is fast approaching. Do you have your gifts!??? Do forget to something fun for all of those handsome hot dogs.

Sometimes I just really enjoy myself too much with these sweet dogs. These pictures I snapped today just make me laugh loud and smile big; especially with all of those eyes staring back at me!!! Happy early Valentine’s Day!!! No telling what else we might get into in the days ahead (leading up to it) so stay tuned, and enjoy the photos (hopefully as much as I do).

These are some sugary, syrupy, sweet moments. I know I’ve said it before, but I really do love watching them sleep; it probably borders an obsession, but they’re so peaceful and precious that it’s nearly impossible to turn away. Don’t you think friends!?? Enjoy the photos.

Instead of being indoors in front of the TV watching a football game and its commercials, we elected to be outside on a beach watching the sunset. It was truly a good time. Hope you and yours had a great one. Enjoy the photos friends.
