Felicitations Festive Fur-friends!

Festive Felicitations my Fantastic Fur-Friends!!

I'm so excited I can't believe it's only ONE sleep until Santa Paws comes!!!

Hurry up Santa!! I'm ready for you!!!
First of all, I have to say a super big thank you to all my Blogville friends who've sent me Christmas Cards...

Every day the postman has been stopping at my place -

Come on Mr Postie - follow me! I know where all the Christmas cards need to be delivered...
And I'm overwhelmed by all my special greetings!

          
Oooh! Look at all my fur-friends!!
I'll be taking that thanks mum...

Of course, I've been busily sending cards overseas too -

And to make mine extra personal.. mum let me have a special photo shoot!

I love the camera...and the camera loves me...
Well, needless to say I was the most handsome dog the photographer had ever had the privilege of capturing...

And naturally, she loved my session as much as I did -

The photographer and her assistant are just loving the fact that I won't sit still...
But for some strange reason she also said I was the only dog she "didn't trust", to take the lead off -

Telling mum she needed to "keep me restrained."

Well why would you leave all these baubles and boxes out if you didn't want me to play with them?!
Thankfully she quickly understood that I only work for treats...

And we finally got there!

What a great result! Happy Christmas to all my friends!!!
Anyway, now all my cards are posted, the presents are wrapped....

It's time to snooze ahead of the great Santa Paws' arrival!!!

Can't wait for you to arrive Santa!!

Until next time!

    1. Hee hee I'm glad to hear you don't think I have a wrong side!
      I was very happy with my picture but it did take a bit of coaxing to put that funny collar on!

  3. That is an excellent photo but we cannot figure out why you needed to be restrained! Didn't they want you to play with those balls?

    Your Pals,

    1. That's exactly what I thought!!
      Obviously they left those baubles and boxes for me to play with so I don't understand what the problem was..
      humans can be strange at times!!
      Happy Christmas!

  10. What a beautiful picture of a handsome Morrie. I can't use treats yet to pay Xena, as she runs up to me when she sees them and I can't get her picture! You, dear boy, are a pro.

      I am sure Xena will get used to the treats system.. I used to leap at them too but quickly learnt if you sit still you get even more!!!

  15. Happy Belated Christmas and Happy New Year! I loved seeing your photo shoot-you are so handsome Morrie Major! I think you are probably having nicer weather there then we are here-we've got snow on the ground and it's very cold out. I will be back to visit again.
