My Three Stooges

Well... here are my 3 kids... the newest and littlest one at 10 pounds and she packs them in. Miss Maggie Mae and she's no girlie girl-she's all out tomboy-loves to wrestle with Petie and rules the roost around here. She starts our day by barking about 4-4:30 that she's awake and wants to be fed. She will let me dress her up though-even though I know she doesn't like it! I will tell her every day-I want to kiss your white eye and then I want to kiss your black eye! Then there is Mr. Petie or Sweetie Petie/Meanie Petie as I call him. The rescue organization(they all are rescues!) told us he was a little gentleman-he can be, but don't wake him up when he's sleeping(I got my lip bit really bad with that one-should have gotten stitches!). He's grumpy sometimes and other times he's sooo loving-guess we're all like that! He loves to run in the backyard and he's almost like a little race horse-he can go sooo fast. Maggie can never catch up to him with his long legs!
Then there is Mr. Buddy. He just showed up at our door(yard-we live in the country) one day. We tried to find out where he came from-but we also suspected abuse from the ring around his neck and his continued ways today(he acts really scared if we're fighting or the other dogs make a mess). He's the first dog I've ever had-but he's more my husband's dog than mine. My husband will say he's never seen a dog curl up and want to get as close to him as Buddy. My mom calls him Godfree because she believes God sent him to us!
I would highly recommend to anyone to support your local rescue organizations. That's the only way to go for us-so much love they need and a forever home. We love them so much -along with our 3 rescue cats!

    I have 3 rescue pets too! One of my dogs looks like the dog in your third picture, my other dog looks like a classic benji and then I have a black and white cat. Love your babies and do highly recommend rescue pets as well, these are the sweetest animals I have ever had. Thanks for the compliment on my page!
    So glad you liked the dresses!

    Love your babies Rebecca. I had a fox terrier once(the ex boyfriend kept him) and he was a funny little dog! They all look so sweet:)
