Dog Day: Fame Has Gone to Their Heads
It’s so great to hear from people who enjoy seeing (and hearing!) The Girls in the blog. But I have to tell you, folks, what with all this attention, and then with the Oscar buzz happening yesterday (yay Daniel Day-Lewis!), they suddenly think they’re celebrities or something. They’ve even begun to re-enact famous movies.
For instance, here’s Chaser doing her own rendition of Queen Elizabeth (and believe me, she rules around here, too):
Here she is again, this time as Lucy in Dracula(the Gary Oldman-Wynona Rider version, not the Bela Lugosi version):
Not to be outdone, Elsie went ahead and rehearsed for Bull Durham (though I think she’d make a better catcher than a batter):
And my favorite, their collaboration on Ingmar Bergman’s Cries and Whispers:
I’m really not sure how to handle them with all this puffed-up ego in the air. . . for now, I’ll just humor them and hope it goes away soon.
(“Mum, truly, this is has to be the worst embarrassment ever. . . but, while we’re here anyway, perhaps one of these nice people would like our autograph?”)
Now don’t let this go to their head, but you have really beautiful dogs!

Monika,
. (Well, I happen to agree, but I’d never tell them!)
Thanks for saying so

I am looking forward to the girls starring in their own film
[Reply]
Oh gosh, I’ll take an autograph ;o).

The girls are adorable!! They’re so beautiful! Their photos absolutely made my day…
They have such poise… Please do tell them that I would love an autograph! 
[Reply]
Shhh…don’t tell them this in fear of their egos just bursting…but I adore them!

Johanna,
I’m still saving for that camcorder, but when I’ve got it. . . (watch out, Lassie!)
Chocolatecoveredvegan,
As soon as I teach them to use the inkpad, it’s yours!
Astra Libris,
Thanks so much. As much as I tend to agree with you, I think I’d better wait a while on your request, or it will REALLY be unbearable around here!
Cakespy,
Aww, shucks. Me, too.

Cute! The Dracula photo is great! Dogs are simply the best

What a talented duo! I’ll take a pawagraph any day!

Two beautiful dogs … I enjoyed their antics!

LisaRene,
Thanks. Well, they are certainly the best in this house, too!
Grumpy Chair,
Don’t tell them you think so, or I’ll never hear the end of it. But I’ll see if I can get that pawgraph for you!
Meg,
Thanks so much. I do get many hours of amusement out of them!!

Ha!

Whoops… sent that last comment prematurely.
Anyway, I was trying to say: Ha! I love those photos. Your dogs are absolutely adorable.

Lizzie,
Thanks so much. Of course I always think so, but it’s so great to hear that others do, too!
