Wolfie, famed bloggy doggy, has passed on to his next mission after 17 amazing years guiding humans, dogs and all creatures with his wisdom and passion.
My heartfelt sympathy goes out to Wolfie's beloved family and I wish it to be known that Wolfie will not be forgotten by this humble blogger.
This is Jasper, my brother's awesome Great Dane. He is an ELEVEN year-old Harlequin Great Dane (hence the white with black spots). I just nabbed this picture from myspace (thank you Swampy) and am loving how cute this big boy looks. A happy dog indeed.
Last Saturday my beloved boyfriend of four years got on one knee and asked me to marry him. Um, yes. Yes yes yes.
Angi Glenn of Tiny Armour fame (an M Design Boutique designer) will design the engagement ring and both of our wedding rings. This is a great honor for both of us because Angi is one of my closest friends and knows me like a sister. I cannot wait to wear what she designs.
Because Mike did not have the ring (he wanted me to have a hand
Sawdust just modeled his new Dog Collar for me. This photo-shoot acts as a stand-in until the Professional Photo-shoot (!) is scheduled sometime next week when the beautiful "Chloe" (a lovely blond vixen lab) is available.

Introducing Serâser --
Serâser is a designer and manufacturer of carpets, millwork and tile. Serâser's designs reflect old world influences and modern, playful twists. Bold, rich colors fill the negative spaces to define silhouettes of organic moving forms in pleasing, coherent symmetry. The patterns present as if naturally grown, sometimes with ornate and finely descriptive detail, or hand carved out of rock or wood: there are no harsh edges. All products are hand drawn and hand made to create a personal and unique feel.
All of the materials and processes used to create Serâser's carpets are chosen both because of the high quality, but also because they are respectful and gentle towards the environment.
Vegetable Dyes
Various parts of plants such as leaves, buds, stems, fruit rind, bark, or roots from around the world are collected, dried, and their colors extracted to create vibrant dyes. Vegetable dyes create luminous variation in the wool, creating a more complex and natural surface.
Wool
High quality Tibetan wool collected from the Himalayas is hand carded, and hand spun. The carpets are hand washed without chemicals and then sun dried to produce a soft surface and bring out the natural sheen of the wool.
Knots
All carpets have 100 knots per square inch. These knots are created around dowels on the looms, and then cut to produce the pile. Sections of the patterns that are left uncut have the loops of wool remaining to produce a unique textural and visual variation.
Cut
After being hand knotted, the carpets are trimmed and sheared multiple times to assure that the pile height is level.
