Story about me that my Hoomans would like to share:

Dolly has always been great at....um.....getting her way.  There's the story of when we first brought her home, and she alerted us to something in the back patio.  We got up from our spaghetti dinner to i
investigate and came back to see Dolly with her head in the spaghetti bowl.  Oh!  And there's the time that Dollers swiped a piece of shortbread clean out of Unka Mike's hand when he wasn't looking.

 :apls:Congratulations Dolly!
You make a beautiful DOD and boy are we impressed by your hunting skills - can you come and teach us where to find possums?  We get wild boar and rabbits only here, dead boring.....

Love the spaghetti and shortbread tricks!   :2funny:  Must have been fun slurping up the spaghetti too.
 We´re going to work on it - Mum makes shortbread every week for Dad and NEVER EVER lets us have any.

Reckon you should get shortbread, spaghetti and everything you want today especially, have a great day,
love from Islay, Red and Andrea

Dolly -- what a wonderful DOD--wanna come hunting with us?  And, can we learn the "shortbread snitch"?  Yer a purty girrrl!  Hugs and kisses from Sarge and Looie .......and Mom and Pop (Dee & Dave) too!

[Mike]

Oh! And there's the time that Dollers swiped a piece of shortbread clean out of Unka Mike's hand when he wasn't looking.

Hey there Miss Dolly.  You are looking marvelous.  Um, it wasn't from me you grabbed and ran, it was Auntie Julia and I don't think she has forgiven you yet.

[Sandishooligans]

Dis is Dolly.  Thank you for all your greetings!  Sorry Auntie Julia.  My boo boo. It was YOUR hand and Unka Mike's famous shortbread. 

Dis morning, I even dressed in da royal purple, fitting for DOD.  Mommy came in da bedroom where Maddie and I were on the big bed and I had wiggled into the sleeve of mommy's purple robe.  I got lots of snuggles for dat.  Mommy said I looked very Royal, indeed.

Smoochies to everybody!

Happy DOD to Dolly

[Julie]

Dolly - you make a great dog of the day!

Sergeant says he is impressed with your shortbread score.  We are saving the bacon story for his day.

Have a fun day!!!

[Nikki]

Hey Dolly!  Congrats on being DOD.  I will never forget the time Max and I came to visit you, Maddie, and your mom and dad in Satna Rosa and we went to the dog park and the big dog scared you and you almost knocked your mama off the bench jumping into her arms for protection while Maddie stood her ground.  And later, you tried to climb my leg to get away from a big dog.  I think your mom forgot in the nickname, Dolly the Chicken.  LOL!  Many belly rubs to you, sweet girl from your Auntie Nikki!

[Leslie]

Dolly, you rock.  I think she has bested even Loki in the grub department.  Keep up the good work work! :thumb:

[Dee Dee and Hallie]

ROTFL!! I got tears over the spaghetti story. And the shortbread story! Wait ta go Dolly!!!  :thumb: She looks so innocent in that photo LOL. She's is a real sweetheart. Happy DOD Dolly!! (hey what happened to "Dollars No Sense" I didn't see that listed on her nick name list... )

[Sandishooligans]

Thank you for making me a very happy dogger on MY DAY.  Now, off to see if anyone left a chair out at the table and then off to take a nap.   

Turbo Tongue Licks,
Dollers no sense whatsoever
