Year of the Dog – Yay!

🐾🐾🐾🐾
A belated reblog, exactly one month after entering the Year of the Dog [in Chinese Zodiac]. This is actually Hera speaking as I’ve taken over my mom’s computer. She’s so late …grrrrrrrrr!!!!! But it’s my [and all dogs] year, so…
A big hug to my angel Resa and unstoppable tail wags!
Oh, and before I forget, celebrating our year, please remember all the doggies in shelters. I was one too and here I am now speaking to all of you lovely people!!

“I know I’m gorgeous, but my mom’s art pillows help add to my beauty. My mom is an artist, Marina Kanavaki and she has a blog!

At this celebration you will meet many dogs. You will meet real dogs & graffiti dogs.”

Above is Clay & Ruty. Their mom is Belén Soto & she has a blog, too! Hmm, that looks like a park behind them! Of course, dogs LOVE to go to the park with their humans.

  2. Well of course I love this post as it includes you and Resa, who are both such amazing women ❤ OH and Hera is the author of it so that’s another reason to celebrate 🙂

    • Ah, Christy, you are so sweet!!!! Yes, Resa is indeed an amazing and so very talented and generous woman! Hera sends many many tail wags and kisses …and love from me! Happy Sunday and week ahead! 🙂 xoxoxo

    • All Resa! She’s awesome …but I know you know that already! Hera is blushing and she sends kisses [albeit somewhat slobbery! 😉 ] Thank you, my dear Charlie. Happy weekend! 🙂

  3. Hi Hera, this is Copper “speaking” not my mom, Lauren. So, I just have to say that you did a great job, and Cheers to a year for dogs. Hey, I was adopted, too, and now I have the best family. 🙂 You are a beauty, by the way, 😉 and also lucky to have such an awesome mom! I’m sending lots of kisses to you, and my mom sends hugs to your mom. Bye for now, I mean, “Woof!”
    🙂 xoxoxo

    • Hi Copper!!! So good hearing from you! Oh my! I’m blushing!!!!! I did sniff you earlier but mom had her computer locked up! Humans duh! Sending you many many kisses and hugs to you and your mom while wagging tail!!! Us adopted doggies are the happiest – if only everyone adopted shelter dogs or cats [I know I know, we’re dogs right?! but they also need homes! 😉 ]! Three woofs to that! and again more love to you and mom!!!! 🐾xoxoxoxoxo

  4. Sweet Hera it’s good to see you and looking so relaxed and glamorous on the cushion your mom made you. I’m sending you a virtual doggy chew and Flora and George (especially George) send you love and licks 🙂

    • Awwww, Gilly, I am blushing! Just as well it’s not visible!!!! Thank you so much for the love, the doggy chew [yum yum!!] and Flora and George love & licks! Love and licks to you too and Flora and George… and a few more licks to George …woo hoo! Mom also sends her love and many hugs xoxoxxoxoxo

  5. How wonderful, Marina, er I mean Hera!!! Year of. the Dog is a perfect time to head to a shelter and find a puppy of dog! If one is not a dog person, take home a cat or two. So much love is needed.
    Thank you, again Hera!!!!
    PS> Don’t forget to give your mommy her computer back! 😀

    • Well said, aunt Resa!!!! …wait…. woof …here mom, computer is all yours now! kisses and tail wags from me!🐶🐾❤️🐾🐶
      Good girl, Hera!
      Indeed, well said my sweet friend… so much love is needed!
      We are both honored to be featured among other beautiful 2 and 4 legged friends in your lovely virtual home! I never tire saying what a golden heart you have!
      Sending you love, hugs and xxxxxxxxxxxx
      and enjoy the weekend! xoxoxoxoxoxo

      • I never tire of your beauty, hugs and kisses! xoxoxoxoxox OH, and the tail wags, I never tire of the tail wags!!! “Woof”

  6. I’m in love with Hera😍 As well as being the queen of beauty, she writes a great blog post. And the pics are wonderful. Thanks so much for putting a big smile on my face🐾💕🐾💕🐾

  7. Hera knew exactly how to pose in that first photo, Marina. She’s even more beautiful next to those gorgeous pillows. And isn’t she clever to have initiated this post. A little self-promoting–Year of the Dog–but since I’m a dog lover, I enjoyed it thoroughly! 🙂

    • She’s a natural, what can I say!!!! 😉
      The promoting bit was Resa’s kindness who had the idea of creating this beautiful post honoring the Year of the Dog, in the first place! Of course, Hera jumped for joy! We both thank you for your lovely words and send our hugs! 🙂

  8. My computer just told me that you, Hera, are Queen of the Gods. There must be some mistake– I thought that was your mother… 😕 I see you have one of your mom’s pillows on which to rest your head. Very good– an important Olympian like you deserves the best… 🎩🏆🍨🚀🌖💥🚑👽👽👽👽👽👽😊

    • Oh, but, dear sir, it is I, Hera who is the Queen of Gods and most definitely the Queen of this house! My mom is simply my servant. Those pillows she made them for me of course but I have granted her permission to use them in her shop. I am generous that way! Sending happy regal tail wags and woofs!!! 🐾 Wait, ambrosia too: 🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨

  9. Thanks for reblogging this because Resa posted this during my blog break … so what a great reminder! … and cheers to Hera’s contribution. 🙂
