I have a Granddog now! "Lola" is eight pounds of "beefy" Chihuahua and something bigger. Daughter is sure she's a Chiwiener, also known as a Mexican Hotdog! Lola refuses to divulge much about her past: that crazy time before she was adopted from a southern California animal shelter. Much speculation from her mistress that a doggie DNA test would be appropriate. Hmm.... don't know if I have $99 worth of curiosity?
Lola will be coming to the Midwest in January....poor little thing, she's never seen snow or experienced temps below the 60's. She's in for a rude awakening! What to do?....
Why, bundle up, of course!
Isn't this cute? I especially like the adapted sweater. Perhaps I can find something of a "North Woods" cozy theme for her. Or, would it be too cliche to cut up one of my old Mexican blankets to make a little jacket for her?! Pretty sure I have one of those hokey little sombreros somewhere around the house, too.... I'm like that.
When I showed my Mom this pattern, she laughed. My Aunt and Cousin had just been visiting, bringing with them practically a suitcase full of little baby garments they had crocheted for my Aunt's newest grandchild. Well, ok, so that's where we're at!!
Semper Fido!
