Molly Time! ~ WARNING .. Lots of Photos & Lots Of Cuteness

0-1629475759505.png

Well It's Time For Molly To Have Some of the Spotlight ..

It's been a while since I posted something strictly about Molly, so this should make up for that. I dug back through a bunch of photo's I took over the last several months, and placed them here for all to see. Maybe you remember seeing a few in certain posts, or maybe you missed them. If you did, no worries, they are here in one post for your viewing pleasure.

Molly is the cutest..

And yes we are biased. After spending a few minutes looking into those puppy eyes, and you can deny she's a cutie, then call me wrong all the way! She's our baby. We were not blessed with the human kind, so we dump all of our love into our dogs. She knows she is spoiled. We know we spoil her. We have no plans to change that either. hehe.

Molly is our million dollar dog.. We have spent a ton of money (more than I will admit here) on her medical care. She came to us with a lot of problems, most of which are manageable with medical supervision. Like I said, she is our baby, so we would do anything for her to keep her well, happy and the tail wagging.

This past year .. Has been quite the depressing, bitter year for all of us. We lost our Pepper boy 10 months ago, and it is still playing havoc on our hearts, especially Molly. We miss that little guy soooooooo much. I can't even explain it with enough detail to help you feel the hurt inside. Molly lost her big brother, her go to in times of trouble, her eyes and ears when she was sick, her pillow, her cuddle buddy, her sidekick trouble maker, but most of all.. her friend.

Molly is in a better place now .. And I think you can see that in the pictures that I am about to share. It makes us happy when we see her happy.

So without further delay,

It's Molly Time!!! ...

Molly likes to sleep in the places her big brother did. The pink bed is a favorite when relaxing in the art room with mom and dad.

It's hard to say no to a face like this.. "Strawberry Please!"

1-087876765.jpg

Waiting is always the hardest part. Molly is a champion waiter, waiting sometimes for hours for mommy or daddy to come home.

ILLB7501.JPG

Every so often she will allow a single selfie. Obviously there was a treat to be had after this show of fearlessness.

IMG_0311.JPG

"What the hell was that?" We get this A LOT with this poor over anxious girl. Mostly a side affect of having Addison's Disease.

IMG_0015.JPG

We ride in comfort and style. When your dog is 6 or 7 lbs it's an easy thing to be comfortable on an armrest. Thank goodness we didn't fall for a Great Dane!

1-087876765765.jpg

She's not a big fan of silver stacking, I can tell ya that much.

IMG_00520.jpg

A little flower girl at heart. Again not real happy with me for placing here, but it did make for a great photo!

1-1623871125236.png

The grim reality of having a disease that requires many many shots. She has been such a good sport through it all.

1629476327851.png

Does not like daddy's Jeep, but will sit on a blanket in the cool shade while I work on it and drink myself a beer.

IMG_0284.JPG

Oh what we do for our pup's.. as my arm fell asleep, I thought about that. I thought how could I possibly make myself more comfortable at her expense??

1615239285717.png

Sometimes even the cutest of cute need a day of pampering, washing and cutting. Stinky girl is not so stinky after going to the puppy spa!

IMG_0706.JPG

By all means, avoid direct eye contact with the camera. I was just trying for the perfect moment with my little girl. Oh well. It's so Molly.

IMG_1087.JPG

Soft grass and shade at her cousins house .. nothing gets better than this sort of relaxation. Surprisingly, for a dog with so much anxiety, she is perfectly okay with this situation.

IMG_0701.JPG

Hmmmm.. I am sensing a theme here. Molly has a thing for grass and snooping on the neighbors.

IMG_0694.JPG

Taking an afternoon nap are we? Sure I'll join ya, but only for a few minutes. 4 hours later ...

IMG_0711.JPG

Oh! Cool!! Another human willing to do as I say. Play with me, rub me, feed me .. Then leave me alone!

IMG_1135.JPG

"I TOLD YOU I DON'T LIKE SILVER COINS!!!!!!"

IMG_1090.JPG

"Yeah, go ahead and take your silly pictures. I see food over there being shoveled into that guy's mouth. Something is bound to fall to earth, and I will be fast and nimble when retrieving it!"

IMG_1225.JPG

Again, things you CAN do with a 7 pound dog.

KTEA4739.JPG

She looked small until she stretched out in my spot in bed. It's then you realize that this 7 pound dog is really quite LONG.

IMG_1619.JPG

Again, we wait.. For something. Could you move over just a tad Molly? Your smothering me. (And I Love It)

IMG_1480.JPG

Well known fact - Tiny cute dogs come with tiny cute paws. Just sayin.

IMG_1590.JPG

Special moments like these are simple yet meaningful. No words spoken, coffee consumed, and my cup runith over with cuddles and warmth. Pepper used to do this and Molly has caught on to how wonderful our weekend morning time can be.

IMG_1605.JPG

There is no lack of dog beds in our house. My wife has a well known addiction of coming home with them. When she arrives home and enters the house, she states loudly for all to here .. "It was on sale and she needed it."

IMG_1159.JPG

She did need it. When she sleeps, she sleeps soundly and comfortably. One could almost say she sleeps like an angle sent by God, to earth, to break in all new beds and blankets mommy felt compelled to buy her. (Okay.. I may have bought a few of the blankets)

IMG_1813.JPG

She does look SO CUTE sleeping in them, and she enjoys all of them, but DAMN Girl. We have enough beds!!! And look there.. she's not in any of them! (Hiding in the corner on a blanket)

IMG_1814.JPG

Closer.. closer..

IMG_1816.JPG

That's close enough right there. She's not happy with all the photos. All those beds and she is quite happy back in this little corner on a blanket.

IMG_1309.JPG

We have a depressed dog on our hands. Everyone is allowed a bad day, when they just feel like s**t.

IMG_1546.JPG

We are always there to hand out love when needed. Reassurance and trust is a pretty nice thing to have in one another.

IMG_1510.JPG

Speaking of 'Trust'.. Trust me, your not getting one of these. And if your wondering what the big deal is, Pretzels make her puke.

IMG_1739.JPG

Just chillin on the couch this summer, instead of basking in the 95F degree weather. I'm cool with that and Molly likes the company.

IMG_1923.JPG

She also has a thing for fresh bacon.. "Did somebody say B A C O N???!!!"

IMG_9458.JPG

She loves the sun. Until she gets hot and starts panting.. then she's out of there!

IMG_1821.JPG

It's Saturday morning, and somebody (Not going to mention any names), Molly, wants her breakfast. "Feed me daddy, feed me. Feed me and no one gets hurt." For some strange reason, I believe her.

IMG_1468.JPG

If you ever stop by for a visit, please be careful where you sit. You never know where a dog called Molly will show up. It's very hard to find a dog that is small, doesn't bark, sleeps soundly, and doesn't care to answer by name.

IMG_1484.JPG

Bed is just too damn comfortable to leave, even for her most favorite of all toys.. her 'Baby'.

IMG_1164.JPG

Did I mention the bed is comfortable? Yes, another of the wife's great ideas that is not being used and just going to waste. I admit, I could be wrong.

IMG_1542.JPG

MOLLY ~ "Daddy, there is something big and green over there. I don't think it was there last time I looked here. Could you pick me up incase it decides to get me?"

ME ~ "Sure. It's just a watermelon."

MOLLY ~ "Are you sure? Sort of looks like a squash to me daddy."

ME ~ "Trust me Molly, you'll know a squash when you see one."

IMG_1523.JPG

"SQUASH!!!!!!!!!"

IMG_E1311.JPG

That squash was REDICULOUS man. I need more time in one of my beds.

IMG_9995 (2).JPG

Nope.. no time for beds and sleeping, you need a bath girl. You stinky. She's not very happy about this situation.. can you tell?

IMG_9998.JPG

Best part about bath time is afterwards when we pretend we are Baby Yoda. "The force is strong with this one."

IMG_9589.JPG

All clean and time for about 30 seconds of play. Shake shake, wiggle wiggle, bite bite, squeak squeak .. "WHAT WAS THAT NOISE?" Play time over. She managed to scare herself.
Yeah, this is our life.

Let's pause for the cutest picture in the whole wide world.

See Above

Okay, Break Over.. On We Go. Not much more though.

IMG_9456.JPG

Another perk of having a small dog, they fit just perfectly between you and the arm of the office chair. Molly is quite happy here while I type away at the computer, creating Hive content.

IMG_9597 (2).JPG

Taking rides in the work truck is never a good sign. She knows something is up. It's like Russian Roulette in her eyes; either the vet, the groomers, or the vet. Oh the VET! She Hates the veterinarian's office.

IMG_E1926.JPG

Sitting pretty staring off at one of us for no reason at all. I guess we are just that good looking. They say you start looking like your pets after time. I suppose there could be some truth to that.

KBRR5276.JPG

I DO NOT look like this in the morning though. hehe. Rough starts happen around our house sometimes. Bed head is a real thing my friends, and we Miller's where it with pride (but rarely admit it).

IMG_1819.JPG

Dinner time is a happy time. We all get a piece at dinner. HEY, get your mind out of the gutter! I mean a piece of food. NOT what you where just thinking. In this case chicken. We eat a lot of chicken. One of Molly's favorite things is chicken. I think if she ever met a live real chicken face to face.. HECK YEAH.. She would bolt so fast in the other direction that she would create her own thunder. Yes that fast. Like sonic boom fast! She eats it but has no desire to know where it actually came from.

IMG_E1823.JPG

"Can't you see I am wasting away down here? Need food. need treats. No love, just food or treats. Stop with the pictures already, I told you I'm starving." She survived. I fed her and she to lived to see another day. After all I AM human and have a heart you know.

IMG_E1929.JPG

After dinner activity is the best! "Come on everybody, lets lay down and digest our chicken. We can go for walks another day. Ahhhhhh... FOOD COMA."

IMG_E7433.JPG

This is our life, up close and personal my friends. Anytime a thunderstorm is near, do not fear.. your face will be scratched, your arm will be wet from saliva, and the pacing could put you back into a sound sleep. But don't worry, the extreme doggy breath panting, directly in the face, will keep you wide awake. So, don't worry about missing any of the action.

IMG_E9760.JPG

How could you ever get mad at this face??
Molly, most days, is blissfully unaware of any of the crap going on in the world outside of her own backyard.

She thinks life is good.

I Have To Agree With Her...

Life Is Good, With Molly In Ours.

Thank you for suffering through this photo filled post about our wonderful baby Molly. She greatly appreciates it and sends you a lick to the face and a high five, doggy paw style.

Reading back through.. that was a bit long. sorry. @sofs-su made me do it - hehehe
Also Molly and me are thinking about Nadi and @gooddream as they are coming to the end of their total lockdown in Vietnam. Hang in there guys!

Aww Molly girl! It's so good to see you again.
I dunno how you can miss a dog when you only see her virtually, but I do.
LOL it is funny that she has so many beds, maybe that is why she is always tempted to sleep.
In time if you wife has her way Molly will have more furniture (her kind) than you. LOL
She is so much like Zoe but Zoe is the bully here.. so curious about everything. She hates thunder, lightning and firecrackers like Molly.
I love that picture of Molly among the flowers, that was my first introduction to Molly.
I pray each day for your little girl.
Thank you so much for posting this Special Molly edition.

She's easy to fall in love with, like most Shihtzu's. They have such the best personalities! I remember us comparing dogs before, and Zoe seems to be a mix of Molly and Pepper. Pepper was my boy.. so curious and adventurous. We pray for her too, every day, but know she has had an awesome, long life so far. much longer than she would have if adopted by someone else I think. Her disease is often caught too late and treated incorrectly. It was meant to be.. for us to find her and make her little life the best possible. 😁😊
