Granny

Some more pix for Emily. :-)
This is Maggie, AKA "Granny." I can't remember the last time I called her Maggie, as her family calls her Granny. And that's Grr-annie with a hint of an Oklahoma accent. :-) She's closing in on her 17th birthday, and I've never known a dog who aged so well. Two months from 17 years old, and Maggie's front is just as pretty as it's ever been. This girl is just so beautiful, in person she looks like she's been sprinkled with pixie dust as she greyed. Granny is Gizmo's mom, and she's grandmother to Syd and Bree.


I am the chief caretaker of the Kingsbury Clan this week, so it's been fun taking photos of all the relatives. Unfortunately, a couple of the dogs are not camera hams like Harry, Maggie, and Syd. Bogey sees me with the camera, and he puts his ears down and he skulks away. It's funny how some dogs are like that. Gizmo does the same, as if he thinks having his picture taken is some form of cruel and unusual punishment!

Have fun with the Kingsbury clan this week!! You'll have to see if you can sneak up on ole Bogey for those of us who rarely, if ever, get to see him. ;o) Maggie is still gorgeous and glad to hear she is still going strong. I still remember when we first met her in Columbia, MO, almost 4 years ago. She looks as stately now as she did then. :o) Harry is very popular amongst all Cardi afficionados, and he is for us as well...have to say he was one of the reasons we got into the breed, and always fun to see him relaxing and enjoying the good life.

Have fun and can't wait to see more of the "other" kids!!

Hugs

YEA!!! I can't wait for the pics! Thanks for keeping this Oregon girl on the edge of her seat *G*

I still wish I had the budget (And time) to come meet her. At this rate she seems like she'll live forever, so I may still have the chance!

Man she's still so beautiful. What a fantastic Cardi face.
