Sampson’s First Muttgarita

August 14, 2014 By Jodi

The Friday after Sampson’s birthday I came to a package addressed to Sampson and me.  Hmmm….I didn’t order anything I said to Hubby.

I opened it up and saw this.

From our friends at For Love of a Dog!

I was tickled pink when I opened it up and saw Sampson got his very first Muttgarita!  Courtesy of Rudy, Jeffie, Rosie and Sue at For Love of a Dog.

Who knew they made these for dogs?

Who knew they made these for dogs? Isn’t it the cutest thing?

Sampson was beyond thrilled to receive a present in the mail.  And no worries, it was his tenth birthday, he’s certainly old enough to have a Muttgariata. 

Aw, thanks Rudy, Jeffie, Rosie and Miss Sue, I love my new Muttgarita.

Aw, thanks Rudy, Jeffie, Rosie and Miss Sue, I love my new Muttgarita.

Of course I could only let him play with it a short time and then I took it away, to make sure a certain other dog didn’t get her teeth on it.

Thank you so much Sue, Rudy, Jeffie and Rosie!!  It was so thoughtful and kind of you to remember Sampson!

For those of you who don’t know Sue, she makes some damn fine dog jewelry, many of which she showcases on the blog, as well as on her Facebook page.  If you are looking for a unique gift for the dog lover in your life, check out Sue’s jewelry here.  Personally I have a few of Sue’s pieces myself and I absolutely LOVE them.

Speaking of Delilah…

I love when she greets me at the door with a toy.

Who Who is at the door?

Look HOO I found Mama.

She carried it around for a couple of minutes, but she’s so good at avoiding the camera, that my photos aren’t that great.  

Why do you insist on flashing that thing in my face?

Please excuse the stuffing all over the floor, one of Sampson’s other birthday toys met an untimely demise.

    Hi Y’all!

    Oh that is so cute. Both Sampson and his B-day toy and Delilah and the stuffings! err…stuffing. Maybe I should bring something to my Humans when they return home. Only the Humans don’t leave me alone with any toys. Oh well. You go Delilah! Have fun Sampson!

    Y’all come by now,

    Love the muttgarita! I’ve never seen that toy before, but it sure is cute! As for the stuffing on the floor, I though maybe Bailie had been at your house. Lately it looks like that around here a lot and some young GBGV is in a lot of trouble over it!

    Muttgarita! GAH! Stuffed toys are the best fun. I also like unstuffed toys!

    Love and licks,

    Love that photo of Sampson with his present 🙂 Just couldn’t let his birthday pass by without a little celebrating. He’s had such a tough year, plus he reminds me so much of my Lucy. You do bring up a good questions though – what is the legal age for drinking for dogs? 😉 Thanks for the shout out about my wares!

    We never seen a Muttgarita before but it sure looks cute and Sampson looks like one happy boy. What a kind and thoughtful gift. Such a lovely surprise to get in the post. Have a tremendous Thursday.
    Best wishes Molly

    What a great surprise. That sue is so very thought full. Love her jewelry. Have fun with your new toy Sampson.

    Love that Muttgarita! That is too cute! I have to hide Callie’s “stuffie” toys from Ducky, too, so I understand! Sampson is just a couple months older than Shadow — her birthday is October 16th. (It will seem so weird not getting on Beth’s FB page this year to wish Emma a Happy Birthday!

    What a cute toy, and how sweet of Sue! Stuffing on the floor is a common sight around here too. Luke and Sheba’s latest project was tearing apart a Kong Wubba. Luckily there’s only a little bit of stuffing in there, and aren’t they proud of themselves for the two balls they found inside it!

    What a nice gift! LOL on the other toy laying in bits on the floor. Our dogs would destuff and probably eat. I guess that is why they don’t get many toys. 🙂

    What a cute present! Barley might need one of those so she doesn’t feel left out when I go out for $2 margaritas with co-workers at the end of long weeks 😉
