Susan is on Faces of Beauty today! Come say hi 🙂
It’s not that I’m out of recipes.
No sirree.
I just feel that it’s imperative that y’all know as much about me as possible. You know, so you can sense my inspiration and whatnot.
And if this little troll-haired crazy mutt doesn’t inspire you then I just don’t know what will.
This is Arnie, my parent’s dog (p.s. I consider him mine, but for reference purposes we’ll call him my parents’ dog). He’s a lean, mean, 20 lbs of terrier fury with an attitude to rival any cat I’ve ever met.
Basically he’s incredible.
When we were in Oklahoma for Papa’s funeral my parents brought Arnie along to stay with our amazing family friends we stayed with.
Here’s what you should know though: he’s more than obsessed with my dad. It’s completely endearing how there was a minor freak-out every time we left, and an even bigger one when we returned.
The last night we were there Salah and Arnie were a’ wrasslin’ on the floor and Nate snapped these pictures of him.
Never miss with a lightning-quick terrier!
How about this one: Arnie grinds his coffee with his teeth and boils his water with his own rage.
OK, fine, that’s a Chuck Norris joke that I changed to Arnie’s name.
Did I mention I used to go to church with Chuck Norris?
That’s another story for another time.
Let’s just say Santa’s not the only one who sees you when you’re sleeping… 😉
The last picture is a perfect photo of a frazzed dog. My lab would look like that at the end of the day if she had hair like that…she gets frazzed up too! We all could use some of their energy.
Arnie sure is fiesty! 🙂 He is so cute!
Oh my goodness, I love this post!
I wish someone could have recorded my reaction to that last picture/line.
Eyes widened in fear, quickly followed by belly laughter.
Adorable rabid pup!
Love that first photo! You look so gorgeous!!!!!!!!
Dogs are wonderful..simply wonderful. I love mine to death!
You went to church with Chuck Norris? Please tell me more!
What a cuddly shaggy dog! Love!
Arnie is my kind of dog. I can see why you would want to call him yours but also know why that is not possible. He is just too cute.
awww… what a sweetie!
He’s absolutely adorable!! I want him!
hahahaha I love these pics of Arnie 🙂 I miss that little rascal! lol
Oh My Goodness. I just about died laughing while reading this! Arnie is so stinkin cute!!
and the Chuck Norris jokes?? They never get old in my opinion!! 🙂
Haha Arnie is just adorable! Love the Chuck Norris reference. “There are only two things in this world that can cut diamonds, other diamonds and Chuck Norris’s beard.” LoL LOVE them all!
Arnie is very cute. I love dogs, they are always happy and always in the right spot at the right time to make you smile 🙂
I’m not sure you can just toss around a name like Chuck Norris and not tell us the story!
Awww, he’s too cute! I love his name too!
Arnie the Wonderpup! What a cutie. I love that he added a positive, energetic element to your time in Oklahoma. 🙂
You are hilarious and he is adorable.
Ahhhhh, he is too cute!! Don’t you just love dogs? 🙂
What a super cute dog!! I heart little dogs 🙂
Oh wow, Chuck Norris..haha
I love Chuck Norris jokes. I want to hear church stories!!
Arnie is adorable… pups really add so much to your life. 🙂
From a fellow terrier owner, I love this. Too freaking cute. Try to keep up with these little fabulous monsters:)
He is so cute! I wish we could get a dog.
ahhh i just wanna hug him!
What a cutie!
He’s so cute! I love that you called him troll-haired. It does remind me of my old troll dolls. Only it’s not hot pink.
