Widget on pile of beds

Although blind Widget is certainly a princess, I'm not sure she would actually feel a pea underneath her in this collection of beds.  There's something about a stack of bedding that always attracts the dogs — comfort hounds they are — even if it takes quite a bit of effort for short-legged royalty like Widget to climb up on top of them.  I watched her do this and was quite impressed she managed to make it to the top without knocking any of them over.  I was tempted to slip a pea in there somewhere after the fact, but I decided that was probably cheating a little when it came to testing the princess and the pea theory.

Button_ARS-click_120x120 Still No. 1!

    This comment has nothing to do with the picture! But…I have lost track of Penny. She’s not listed in the Meet the Dogs section nor in the Gone But Not Forgotten section. Is she still with you? She has always been a favorite of mine.

    Widget is the sweetest pea!
    Great capture at one of her favorite past times, but where’s the food? 😉

    Really cute picture! It is amazing how they seek out comfort & warmth. But, most amazing is how she did get up there w/out knocking any of the bedding over. She had to have been thinking….ahhh, mission complete, now for a nap!!!

    I love that sweet little face that made it to the top of the stack! Go Widget! As I write this, my dog has found my as of yet unmade bed and made a pile of my snuggie, nightgown and blankets and rolled them into a stack. Will now have a dog-scented snuggie!!

    I have a picture of my Renaldo sitting atop a bunch of blankets and I squeezed a can of peas in between the layers.
