Goldie in basket in Lancaster

Of course, the laundry baskets made the trip to New Hampshire too, along with everything else.  We weren't about to leave any of these "beds" behind.  As you can see, blind Goldie has commandeered the one in the living room, which is at the moment blocking the door to the basement behind her.  These baskets are just as popular here as they were back in Montana!

    And they are cheaper than dog beds that one can buy at the pet store.
    What an inexpensive way to make dogs and kitties feel comfortable!
    Goldie is adorable!

    Your dogs like baskets as much as my cats like boxes! 🙂

    Awww, love Goldie. Does she need any more stuffed squeaky toys to remove the squeakers from? Her surgical precision makes me laugh.

    Is the living room in the “people” wing or the “dog” wing of the house? How long did that last? They train us quickly, don’t they?

    Blockin’ the door – so what! I’ve got my basket and I’m in it NOW! (said in J.D. Wentworth voice). What a sweet girl Goldie is – thanks for the laugh 🙂

    That is the cutest picture! Goldie sure knows comfort when she see it. Wonderful to see her! My nephew has a lab & a chihuahua & I will sit for them when they are out of town. I think about this blog every time I go there cuz the chihuahua is always on the big bed & the lab is on the little one. This is always going to a puzzle to us humans!!!
    On another note, I have been following this blog for a long time & those who have seen my posts can see I always have included my sweet kitty’s name. Sadly, shockingly & unexpectedly he passed away yesterday. My heart is broken & I am racked w/ grief. With all the pet lovers here & if you pray I am asking for a small prayer for comfort.
    RIP, Erin 12-9-2004 to 7-22-2010.

    Aw, Goldie is such a pretty girl. I think you should just get a bunch of baskets for every area of the house and line them with some old towels and let the furkids have at it! Maybe even outside on the porch, too. So much cheaper and apparently comfy since the dogs love them so much! Like I always say…whatever works! 🙂
