More "regular" smileys below, but first ...

Lotsa new smiles around here these days ~ meet the Super Scoop-a-doop!

Likes the fuzzy pillow - a lot - wrestles it, drops in lap, good for goosin' too - possibly a new herding technique. Slobbery thing's been tossed, tromped, rendered gutless and chewed to pieces already, remains a fave.

"The Beardie is still used as a shepherd's helpmate in Scotland, and now in the U.S." - from http://beardie.net/bcca/faq1.htm

Scoop could be a pure-bred, might be able to tell as hair grows out. Definitely acts the part as described.

Note frog legs - cracks us up all the time - every silly, sweet, goofus, full-uv-it expression, stance and move.

Hoof under paw, chew stick in mouth - too many toys? Never! And you ain't seen nuthin' yet, check out The Scoopinator and friends: http://www.therealmartha.com/DogToys/index.htm

The one and only, must-have for every manic chewer.

Best smile going these days, sales benefit Scoop's former associates at the shelter where he was dumped for eating furniture, blinds, a car interior ...

This is not Scoopy, and I never even had a chance to meet Petey. Pretty obvious why it didn't take him long to find a new home.

A reader found Miss Icee Blue on www.petfinder.com, "This girl has the most captivating expression I have ever seen."

Scoopy being a werewolf - caught him mid-shake (one ear straight out, one up)

All people, and critters, smile in the same language (~.*)

Apropos for this page, dogs don't care if we've been out robbing banks all day - our amazing ability to walk through the door still rates that incomparable smiley-tail five minutes of fame.
