My Three Dogs

As I've mentioned before, I have three dogs.

Evie, the mini-Aussie:

Charlie, my regular-sized Aussie:

And Sophie, my part-rat-terrier-part-neighbor's-dog cross:

Since I have no children, my dogs basically are my kids, and they act like it. They know how to put on the "look." You know, the one you can't resist.

Help me, Rhonda.

They love to go places with me, but unlike human kids, they never ask if we're there yet.

Yes, that's poor Charlie being used as a booster-seat.

My "kids" like to play outside, too.

Of course I think kids today don't play outside as much with video games being so prevalent. I don't have to worry about that with these kids--they lack opposable thumbs.

And even though I don't have a family, in the traditional sense of the word, I think of these three as part of my family.

I can't imagine my life without them.

Somehow having someone look at me like this makes my life just that much better....
