Ok, this week it's Belle! She's a 9 year old Black/tan Bloodhound. She's got her papers, but due to her underbite and lack of adult teeth, we got her for a steal! Funny how having not many good teeth haven't stopped her from being 130lbs! Yes, she is on a diet!
Her ultimate favorite place to sleep...
It also doubles as the Christmas tree spot (she is not happy at that time of the year!).... see below for her 2nd favorite spot...
In front of Daddy's chair!
he loves it too as I hear "honey, I don't want to disturb the dog, can you..." um yeah....right...
You know I was sleeping until you started flashing me!
She now has osteoarthritis in her hips (talk about impressing the vet, when I saw her xray I said, "ick..look at her hips! oops, sorry that's your job!") and she is prone to lots of lipoma's (fatty tumors) In fact, this past spring she had a large one removed from under her neck. Her ears are a pain...always needing something in them, well you would too, with huge ears like that! ;) She's going deaf and has cataracts...cripe only 9 yrs old..oh..wait isn't that like 63 or something in people years....

Oh, isn't she just a big love!! You just want to give her a big hug!
Awww! So loveable! And yeah, 63 is no spring chicken!
What a sweet "pup"! She looks like a very loyal friend.
She weighs more than my mother! *L*
She's no spring chicken if she's 9, but she still looks good.
Look at that face in the last photo. That's the best.
I have a friend that her dog keep getting those fatty tumors too.
Oh My God. She is one big dog! But such a cutie!
yeaph - tell Belle I am joining her in diet misery! SIGH!
I love how you have yarn stashed inside your end table! I could use one of those for the living room. ;-)
