Baxter in Green

Baxter the beast will be here soon to share Christmas. Some parts of Christmas are easier than others.

The 'beast' is absolutely adorable, Mary. Just look at that little face. A lovely shot.

It's lovely to talk to you again Mary, and thank you for your message. May I wish you and yours a wonderful Christmas with much happiness.
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Paul. It was really great to find you. The beast is adorable for a minute or two and a destructive monster for the rest of the hour.
Best of the season to you and your wife (and children?) as well and I'll drop by your animus blog.

Brilliant.

Baxter looks like a "pussycat" in lime green towelling!
Mary MacADNski: He'd just had a swim in cold water. It was a very hot day but they get a chill easily.

Now there's a contented dog if ever I saw one Mary!
Mary MacADNski: He loves my daughter very much and also likes to be warm.

Mary MacADNski: The cats and ME, zed. He drives me bonkers with this destructiveness. He chews everything!
Superb capture Mary. What a cute beast!

Just put the green towel in front of the fireplace and watch it enjoying (when it arrives).

PS. I will probably have the same expression when some beauty holds me like that smile
Mary MacADNski: It will take the cats and me a week to recover after a visit from Baxter the beast. He would probably chew the towel to bits.
Ummm - a face only amother could love (a little like mine)
Mary MacADNski: LOL Your face or your dog's face? You walked into that one.
That 'baby' has got an identity crisis ... thinks it is a dog!
;-) richard
Mary MacADNski: Believe me, it is a dog, a chewing, barking, piddling, chasing the cats, dog.
I love Baxter, fantastic shot Mary.
Mary MacADNski: He is loved by my daughter too. Bit of a difficult dog but you do what you have to when they're one of the family. LOL
Happy dog.
Mary MacADNski: He is, in his momma's arms.
A bundle of mischief it appears from some of your earlier replies Mary.
Mary MacADNski: You have a perfect description of him. I hope you don't mind that I use it in today's responses.
Some creatures are simply spoilt rotten Mary.
Mary MacADNski: That's basically it, Chad, but not by me.

After seeing your replies, Mary, you have now answered my question about if Baxter is one of the easier parts of Christmas...or not! So, you don't have any say about him when he comes????
Mary MacADNski: Not but I am trying to be tolerant. He can spread destruction as fast as you can imagine. I am adopting a new description, first issued by our Brian Walby, "a bundle of mischief." Fits him perfectly.

He's my daughter's dog so I have to have him if I want her. He's a bit of a handful but cute as you can see.
He is adorable Mary. I could forgive him anythingtongue
Mary MacADNski: I will make this wish for the holidays. I will try to be more tolerant of the beast - maybe begin by not calling hiim a beast.
Adorable! Boston or Frenchie?
Mary MacADNski: He's a Boston. - a year and a half bundle of energy.
Baxter is a STAR! I'm not allowed to have a dog (Jude says we have enough on our plate with the 3 cats and the rabbit!) - at the moment! PS. Enjoyed your island walk. The weather here is cold and icy but I suspect its MUCH colder where you are! Mike
Mary MacADNski: It was +3 and raining all day yesterday and +1 today. We have no snow on the ground, a white Christmas.

If I was to have a dog it would be a calm and larger type like a golden retriever or something similar mixed breed. These little energetic bundles who eat everything not put on a 10 foot shelf is not the dog for me.
I thought so. I had one once - a beautiful white one and mad as a hatter. I loved him so much. In my mind they are the best breed of dog ever smile
Mary MacADNski: My daughter loves him to pieces too. I like dogs who lie at you feet, look up lovingly and this is after he's brought you your slippers, not eaten them. LOL
