Dog Day Afternoon...

Once a month, David and I enjoy the luxury of having our home professionally cleaned. All the *heavy* stuff gets the professional touch. On that day, our two pekingese get treated to a day on the town! There's plenty to do 'downtown.' Our community is dog-friendly. There are restaurants with outside tables that allow dogs. Several shops cater to dogs and of course dog parks and dog 'supermarkets' are on the list.'
It's kind of surprising, but our aggressive black and white peke has a complete personality transformation once he gets away from the house. He's well-behaved, calm & tolerate of strangers. Bailey lets me try countless doggie jackets on him, and is more than happy go down any aisle we find interesting. He's actually a great shopping partner and a bit of a fashionista!
Brandee~Cherie, our classic parti-peke, is Miss Congeniality. She greets everyone in her path by popping up half out of her doggie stroller. Dogs and people alike are captured by her happy peke face that is in a perpetual smile.
Today was overcast and rainy in spots. Bailey donned his purple raincoat with the fleece lining. Brandee took refuge under her stroller's protective roof. After our usual visit around town, we returned to an immaculately cleaned home. What a treat for dogs and humans alike!
