The Hopeless Doodle Addict Trophy has Arrived in Nashville, TN!!!!

[Allyson, Peri & Taquito]

Well, DK friends...I always knew this day would come. I am now officially addicted to doodles!!!

 

Yesterday I came home to a wonderful package from F. Parker, Calla and Luca (the latest recipient of the trophy), which included the infamous trophy, treats, bandanas, and New Jersey tourism guides! For more information on this prize and how it works, please visit the history of the trophy: http://www.doodlekisses.com/forum/topics/and-the-next-doodle-addict-is?commentId=2065244%3AComment%3A608643

 

F. and her doodles sent us quite a spread! Here is a photo - you can see it included some great skinneez toys (no stuffing), liver treats, bandanas, a ball (that Peri is currently throwing around the room as I write this), a cool pen, and New Jersey tourism info (where F. is from!).

 

Immediately, Peri started trying to get the Skinneez....she has not had one since she was probably 6 months old because she tends to destroy them.  Look at her excitement!

 

Then it was time for the bandanas to be put on and the kids to play!  Peri and Taquito were both thinking "geez, it's been a while since we have had a plush toy".... DH came home and wondered why Taquito was wearing a frilly bandana.  I personally LOVE It :) He's a chihuahua after all.....not the manliest dog LOL!

 

About 10 minutes later, I had gone back to change into casual clothes...Peri dropped the skinneez at my feet. This is why I don't buy plush toys (even without stuffing) folks!  I would be broke. So thanks F. for the fun!

 

 

DH finally got home and asked me what this was all about.  I told him it was a "prize" for people active in doodle stuff (like food, puppyhood, etc..).  He knows I get on DK, but I think now he knows how often that is...uhoh! He just laughed and said "cool toys and stuff" - then read the NJ guidebooks and took my photo:

 

 

Peri had been at daycare all day yesterday and refused to look at the camera....sorry about that!

 

To all my DK friends - I have enjoyed all of our discussions - I am so much more enlightened on dog ownership now, especially the joys of life with a doodle. I honestly think DK.com has helped me get through Peri's toughest puppy times.  So thank you to all!  And a special thanks to F. Parker for sending me the trophy and gifts :)

 

Where will it go next? Hmmm...I will be sending it early next week and you will all see!

 

[F, Calla & Luca]

Oh right, dock diving doesn't count : )

[Allyson, Peri & Taquito]

of course there's eyeballs...are you kidding? Someone is always watching :)

[Laurie, Fudge, and Vern]

Looks like everyone enjoyed their package. My dogs love those Skinneez too, but they last a little longer than they did at your house. Very cute pictures.

[Leigh & Allie]

I just told DH, "You remember, I told you that this is the puppy that I wanted Allie to look like?" AND HE REMEMBERED..... that is HUGE!!!! He responded "they do look very similar". O.k. you have to understand that is about all I can get out of him. But he REMEMBERED!!!! So happy for you, Peri, and Tacky. You all deserve it for different reasons. What a cute family. Congratulations!!!!!!!

[Leigh & Allie]

Oh by the way did the return address tell you what the F. stands for? Had to get that in.......The mystery continues.........

[F, Calla & Luca]

Remember Allyson, HDAs stick together and reveal nothing--shhh.

[Allyson, Peri & Taquito]

That's why I kept it as "F". hehe

[F, Calla & Luca]

Thanks!

[Ann Kendig]

Duke won't tell! He would never betray you, F!

[F, Calla & Luca]

Oh gee, tell him to forget I ever doubted our connection and give him a hug.

[Ann Kendig]

Will do!

[Susan and Sasha]

Congratulations...
I enjoyed looking at all of the pics...
It looked like it was such a fun time for all... and may I say...you do have a beautiful smile...
It's an honor to be part of the DK family...
