the quintessential shop-dog



We love going into an antiques shop and finding a shop-dog!!
And this one pretty much takes the cake! This is Stella, and we saw her in a shop in Northampton, Massachusetts.
Be sure to note the pearls and the painted red nails!!


Wishing you a safe and happy holiday weekend!

    Oh dear me...I think my little Bergie needs some pearls, I seriously doubt she'd let me paint her nails - I'm snickering just thinking about trying to get her to sit still long enough for the "pawdicure".

    I'm trying to imagine any dogs I know holding still for nail polish application and it isn't easy!

    Really adorable dog, though, that Stella.

    My girl dogs would love a string of pearls....to rip off each other's neck and scatter around the house. Stella must be a very well-behaved pooch!
