The faces of Tess & Lincoln when Mommy is late with breakfast.
Happy Tuesday everyone. đĽ°
Someone needs a bath and a trim BUT sheâs still BEAUTIFUL in my book.
Happy Wednesday friends. We hope youâre having a good day.
Wonât look Wednesday or a perfect Sunday? đ
Itâs a three day weekend in the U.S. and we are fully embracing relaxation. We had a little excitement last night when the Emergency Broadcast System alerted us to a Tornado Watch. Thankfully, the rotation stayed north of us so we werenât in the safe space for long.
Hope you have a great day friends!
Itâs a good thing Lovie is wearing a purple collar! At a quick glance, itâs hard to see the difference between Lovie and the bed. đ
Itâs a sleepy day here at the Wigglebutt Ranch so I included all three dogs in their preferred sleeping area đ´
Does this qualify for Wonât Look Wednesday?
Lincoln: Day 1,205 of my captivity.
Lincoln: The HuMom and HuDad are busy doing things that donât involve me or my sisters. The world does revolve around us so Iâm not sure what to do about this injustice. Please advise. Thank you friends.
This is Lincolnâs âIâd like a bite of thatâ face. đ
The answer is no my sweet boy but I did give him a treat. We try really hard to keep their digestive system healthy and what I was eating wouldnât support that goal.
Tess, Lincoln and Lovie love Bocceâs treats and I love Jackie for introducing us to these yummy treats.
Happy Sunday friends. I hope youâre having a good day! XXOO from me and my crew. đĽ°
Do you like our game day look?
Baseball is back and we couldnât be happier. Our friend invited us to see the Rangers vs Cubs tonight. Theyâre getting their World Series rings. Yippie!
Have a great day friends. âžď¸đ°
Lovely Lovie is the Manager of the Day.
We are moving some âstuffâ into our storage unit today and Supervisor Lovie is on the case!
Hope youâre having a Lovie lovely day đĽ°âď¸
Caption this photo of Lincoln.
Iâll go first: Nobody Knows the Trouble Iâve SeenâŚđđđ
I hope he hasnât seen any real trouble since we picked him up at the kennel in 2021. I like to think that âthe dog days are overâ for our sweet boy. We still cant believe our luck that he joined our family. We love him to the moon and back. đ
A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones. âPROVERBS 17:22
In her own way, Miss Lovie Loo embodies a cheerful heart. Sheâs blind and deaf but she makes her way through each day with a soft heart. đ
Happy weekend friends. Whether youâre working or relaxing, I hope you do at least one thing that makes you cheerful. đ
Iâm tagging because Hershey is the most cheerful dog I have ever met! Sheâs a happy baby who brings her family lots of cheer every day!
Have you ever had green beer?
No beer for the pups, but I remember a couple of St. Patrickâs Day green beer parties in college. No need to repeat that experience. đđâď¸
âItâs not easy being green.â ~Kermit the Frog
Saturday thoughts with Lincoln. đŹ
Weâve been busy this week having the interior of our house painted. Tess, Lincoln and Lovie stayed at for a week. They were spoiled rotten but ready to come home! We are thankful for the love and care McKeeâs shows our babies.
Hope youâre having a great weekend friends. âď¸đĽ°â¤ď¸
Whoâs your Valentine this year? đ
HUGE shout out to Kirby for sending his girlfriend Tess the beautiful personalized bandana sheâs wearing in this photo 𩷠pawkett has an amazing Mom who makes bandanas for fun! Check out her bandana account AND Happy Valentines Day friends.
âThe best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen, nor touchedâŚbut are felt in the heart.â Helen Keller
Are you psyched or blah that itâs Super Bowl Sunday?
Tess and I are psyched for our girl Taylor.
Lincoln and John are here for the food!
Lovie is here for all of it.
However you are celebrating or not celebrating today, we hope that itâs a day of love and puppy snuggles.
Whatâs up my friends?
Weâve been quiet lately because my Covid journey morphed into bronchitis. Thankfully, I got some meds and my nurses are still attending to me.
We love you and hope you stay healthy.
Long time. No see. Because Nurse Tess & Lincoln have been busy taking care of me. 𤢠Check out the second photo for a good Lincoln laugh!
I went to Atlanta last week and came back with Covid. Itâs the gift that keeps on giving. This is my second bout. It still sucks but I think having the booster has made it less severe than the first time.
That said, I am off to bed.
Another year has passed, another year has come. We wish for you that, with every year, you achieve all of your dreams. May God pour love and care on you.
We are blessed to know you. We are thankful for your friendship. We are grateful for your kind words, especially when one of our fur babies is sick.
Welcome 2024.
Merry Christmas from our home to yours.
A special thank you to .pawkett for the festive personalized bandanas. đ Lincoln, Tess, Lovie and I appreciate your generosity and kindness. â¤ď¸
Hope youâre having a great holiday however you celebrate it.
Can you believe itâs 3 days until Christmas?
HUGE thank you to Auntie Melissa for the snazzy matching bandanas. And a Shout Out to Tess boyfriendâs mother, Melissa .pawkett for her handiwork.
âChristmas is not a time or a season, but a state of mind. To cherish peace and goodwill, to be plenteous in mercy, is to have the real spirit of Christmas.â ~ Calvin Coolidge
Guess whoâs celebrating a birthday today?
Mr. Lincoln, LinkE, Linker Stinker, Lincolnus, Linc McStink, Linc-a-roni, âThe Boyâ turned 5 years old today. đĽłđđ
Lincoln is the golden boy of mischief and we love him to the moon and back. Itâs hard to believe that someone turned him into but thank heavens they did! He is the best boy in the world and heâs all ours. đĽ°
Please help us celebrate Tess today! Itâs her Gotcha Day! đĽł
Five years ago today we picked up our tiny spitfire from her devoted foster parents, Mary and Rusty. By the time the four hour drive home was completed, she and I were BFFâs forever đĽ°
A huge thanks to Houston Cocker Spaniel Rescue for literally saving her life. Believe me when I say, rescue saves lives.
Tess is beautiful, fierce, loyal, sweet, and sometimes naughty but always loved. Hug your pups today and tell them it was a long distance hug from Tess. đ
Weâve officially started the countdown to Christmas!
Itâs 13 days until Christmas. Are you and your pups ready?
13 Days and Counting!
Sleepy Sunday with my bestie and her sweet pups. The Christmas party wore everyone out so today is a recovery day đ
Huge shoutout of thanks to for a wonderful weekend of Christmas love.
We know that our soul sisters and were here in spirit but we missed you.
Happy Holidays to all! â¤ď¸đâ¤ď¸
Whatâs the best way to spend a Saturday?
Iâll go first. The best day is hanging out with Sasse and her siblings
We hope youâre having a wonderful weekend friends. đ
Heâs just a boy, staring at his Mom, saying I need more treats. Pleeeeeeze.

Throwdown (for a nap) Thursday đ . . Has your week been busy or quiet? . . Iâve been swamped at work and itâs starting to feel like a swamp around our neighborhood. It started raining last Friday and itâs rained of and on every day since then. It is safe to say that Tess and Lincoln are not big fans of potty time in the rain. . . When it rains Tess acts so much like my Sam that I feel like Iâve gone back in time and heâs still here. That boy would hold it until he was on the verge of an explosion. I worried about his little bladder! He was like a ballet dancer as he pranced through the wet grass. And heaven forbid if the grass was âtoo tall.â He earned his title of King Sam. He wouldâve loved Princess đ Tess.
Is your dog âhungry like a wolfâ for every meal or is he/she a more discriminating eater? . . Weâve had 10 dogs and 18 fosters in my adult life and only 2 were picky eaters. Most were âpigs with fur.â đ . . Lincoln loves meantime. Tess is hot and cold towards meals but loves treats. Go figure. . . Itâs a rainy day here today for the third day in a row so we are hanging inside. Hope youâre relaxing and having dinner with the people and animals you love.
Check out Lincoln the bright eyed Easter bunny cocker spaniel. đ° . . Do you have a favorite Easter or holiday treat for the humans in your house? . . When I was a kid we always got a chocolate bunny in our Easter basket. Iâm not a big fan of the chocolate bunny so my brother was happy to eat two bunnies. đđ . . Mr. Lincolnâs cataract surgery recovery is going well. He is finished with antibiotics but we still have four eye drops. He doesnât love the drops but we praise him and give high value treats. His next follow up appointment is on Monday. . . Heâs a silly bunny who reminds me of our Sonny (Bunny BooBooHead) a little more each day. đ°
