Picture Post: Kate the Great, destroyer of tennis balls and champion snuggler

By: Meradeth Houston on 4:00 AM

I have a birthday coming up on Saturday, and to be honest, I'm having a bit of a freak-out about it. There have been a few birthdays before this where the number has kind of hit me hard, but this one seems to be especially so. Yeah, I know getting older is better than the alternative (as my best friend is wont to tell me), but it still has been sticking in my gullet a little worse than normal. So, what's a lady to do? Share cute pics of her dog! :) Yeah, it's a picture post about Kate, my funny little rescue pup, because she cheers me up infinitely and hopefully she'll make your hump-day a little better too!

"I will have my belly rubbed! My psychic powers of persuasion are just getting warmed up!"

Kate at her BFF, Sadie's place. "Don't mind us, we're just jumping on your bed!"

"Mom, look!! I can get the whole thing in my mouth!" Sigh. Yes, yes she could also get it out. 

Nothing is safe from these jaws. NOTHING.

"I have snow on my nose. SNOW. This is glorious. Now take me inside and warm me up!"

"I don't know why my mom likes taking pictures of me on her lap. I always steal the show."

And that's Kate. Narrative included :)
