Our friend, Jason, brought over his new “baby” the other day and I couldn’t resist snapping some pics of her when she started to get sleepy.
Meet Tootsie…
She’s a “dorkie” (dachshund/yorkie) and our pooch, Max, is officially in love. The mere mention of her name has him racing to front door at an incredible rate of speed these days.
The first time Jason brought her over, they chased each other around for a good 45 minutes before she finally konked out on one of the quilts I blogged about yesterday…
Aaaaahhhh! That pic kills me! I can almost smell her sweet little head right through the screen!
Here’s a little video of her waking up…
And because we thought this pic of her yawning (no, it’s not photoshopped) was absolutely hilarious…
…we thought we’d throw a “Lettered Cottage Caption Contest” this week!
If you’d like to enter, submit your photo caption ideas (for the yawn-y photo above) in the comments section below and we’ll choose a winner on Thursday (July 14th) at noon (Central Time). The prize…a new puppy, of course!
I kid.
How about a $50 Lettered Cottage Visa Gift Card…
You come up with the winning caption, and we’ll order ya one from GiftCardLab.com!
PS- Speaking of precious new pooches, check out David Bromstad’s new baby, “Miss Lady Godiva Bonbon”…

…and Sarah’s, “Peanut”…
Adorable!!!

“You can never accuse me of being tongue-tied!”

“Tongue twisters could be hazardous to my health….”
“That bug did not taste as good as I thought it would!”
“Mmmmm, I looove the taste of quilt in the morning!”
“Max likes a little tongue with his kisses.” 🙂
“Yes I have a looooooong tongue, but what did you expect from a dachshund?”
She is SO cute!
Hey Max, does this tongue make my butt look fat??

I once licked a bone that was thiiiiiis big.
for the caption: “People say I’m a ‘little dorkie’, but I don’t know why!”
I vote for KK”s slogan….
Why couldn’t the breed be called a Yorkshund?? I guess Dorkie has more talk=a=bility, “You got a what? Dork??” keeps the buzz going

here’s my caption: you only spent HOW much on this project?
“To keep him company during those long, lonely hours of pulling down wallboard Kev invested in the new fangled Ta-Da-Orkie! Part Tape Measure, Dachshund and Yorkie all in one.”
“Caution: This is a dangerous weapon. Only hightly trained professionals like myself should use it.” (Read with an adorable baby lisp).
“They call me Bond, Tootsie Bond”
I wunder if I has a future in Rock n Roll…
(sleepy little kid voice)

“All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth … maybe they will keep my tongue inside my mouth.”
Ice Cream! Did you say ice cream??? GIMME SOME!!! Just a little lick, ok???
How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop? One… T.. Oh, I’m there!
Oh-My-Gosh! You just made my day! Now I wanna “dorkie”! 🙂
You’re gonna get a lickin.
Now this is a true “Family Jewel”…….poor Gene
Oh those cookies smell so good I can taste them!
A cranky Tootsie glared at her owner after once again being woken up from her afternoon nap by the power drill. Her eyes said it all: “Do one more DIY project during nap time and I swear, I’ll slobber over every last inch of this house. Starting with your toothbrush…”
see, I tol ya it was long.
MAKES FOR EASY CLEANING!!!
(sorry, couldn’t help it!!!)
“Yummm…popsicle! Just wish that cold wet part would get lost!”
Jeez, it took me five minutes to scroll down! I have two:
“I am Gene Simmons’ love puppy” and
“Gene Simmons’s is my doggy daddy.” This are the cutest pictures ever. And nicely styled. Ann
I should’ve never taken that triple dog dare to stick my tongue to that pole
“Gene Simmons meet your match!”
Tootsie, “This watermelon airhead won’t fit in my mouth!! Give me a tootsie roll!”
“In the lap of luxury at the Lettered Cottage”
You’ll have to tell everyone where to get a Dorkie. My Pomapoo’s need a new friend!
“Any one else watch Design Star around here???”
Waiting for my puppy to arrive home on the mainland after we were stationed back from Hawaii….your post made me miss her even more 🙂
Oh, no, there it goes again. Help me roll it up!
“Open wide and say ahh…dorable!”
Hands up there partner, this is a lick-up!
“Sweet Dreams do come true. . . “
A lick in time save 9!
