Big Dog

A while back,  we had some good friends over for dinner.  We found out that it was this guy's birthday,

so Madison helped make him a birthday cake.

Sort of.

Our friends also have dogs.  Big dogs.  We like big dogs.  So we convinced them to bring one with them.  Meet Margo, the Great Dane.

Violet wasn't too sure about Margo at first.  Understandable, given the fact that Margo was WAY taller than her.  But she is such a gentle giant.  She was always watching out for the girls, and so patient with them. 

I will admit, it was slightly unnerving to sit at the dinner table and have  a dog look me right in the eyes, but she really is an amazing dog.  So well behaved and sweet.

Needless to say, she got the royal treatment that night - steak bones, table scraps, butt rubs, the works.  She was pretty spoiled.  And Violet even warmed up to her by the end of the night.

Between Margo & Ranger, I think we might have found a new business venture.  Doggy Sleepovers!  At least I could get my dog fix without actually having a dog...
