He'd wish you a Merry Christmas, but he doesn't want to. You can only clamp fake antlers on a bin Laden's head for so long before he starts grouching off. And Linda just wanted the photo session to end so she could chew on wrapping paper once we started opening presents.
But even if our dogs don't, Diane and I wish you all a Merry Christmas!
Bernie never fails to perform!
Merry Christmas, John and Diane.

What a great photo! (. . . and believe me, my dogs ALL share Bernie's sentiments!)
Merry Christmas from Karen, Spirit Sylvie and family
Sweet Silly Sylvie, the Old English Sheepdog
Diagnosed with osteosarcoma 11/04/2010 at almost 7 years of age * Left hind leg amputated 11/09/2010 * Chemo on 12/10, 12/17, 01/10, 01/31
Sweet Sylvie's earthly journey ended on Nov. 3, 2011, one day short of a year since her diagnosis and 6 days short of her one-year ampuversary. Her family celebrates her life as a sheepdog – ever the puppy, ever silly, ever sweet – and are grateful for our 7 years together.
Hahahah! Oh we know he's really shouting "HOPPY CHRISTMAS" in his own special way!
Merry Christmas to you too! Woof!

What adorable dogs! Great picture! And Merry Christmas to you and your pack! 🙂
Bernie is happy in a dog body! His dog body never fails to make me happy. I hope all of you have a great Christmas, John. And I hope you paid Bernie and Linda for their trouble.
Shari
From abandoned puppy to Tripawd Warrior Dude, Dakota became one of the 2011 February Furballs due to STS. Our incredibly sweet friend lived with grace and dignity till he impulsively raced over the Bridge on 12-15-12.
Dakota's thoughtful and erudite blog is at http://shari.tr.....pawds.com/
Definitely looks like he's saying, "Bah, humbug!" (or maybe "Bark, humbug!")
Merry Christmas to you as well!
Jackie & Abby
Abby: Aug 1, 2009 – Jan 10, 2012. Our beautiful rescue pup lived LARGE with osteosarcoma for 15 months – half her way-too-short life. I think our "halflistic" approach (mixing traditional meds + supplements) helped her thrive. (PM me for details. I'm happy to help.) She had lung mets for over a year. They took her from us in the end, but they cannot take her spirit! She will live forever in our hearts. She loved the beach and giving kisses and going to In-N-Out for a Flying Dutchman. Tripawds blog, and a more detailed blog here. Please also check out my novel, What the Dog Ate. Now also in paperback! Purchase it at Amazon via Tripawds and help support Tripawds!
Thanks for the holiday humor! We can always count on Bernie for comic relief! Happy holidays to you!

OK- I'm with Bernie on this one. If someone put those things on my head I would be a grumpy-ass too.
I hope Linda got all the paper she could chew on!
Merry Christmas you guys.
Karen and the pugapalooza
Bernie I tried to feel sorry for you but you just make me giggle!
Merry Christmas!
Poor Bernie and Linda!!! Christmas is about getting toys and treats not stooooopid costumes!!!! Sheeeesh!
Mommy tried that business with me and I wouldn't sit still! Had I known I could make a nasty face, then I would have done it!
Merry Christmas Bernie and Linda! And give your mom and dad an extra lick for me!

We LOVE the picture! Glad the clan was having fun on Christmas.
Mary, Lucy's mom
Lucy's front right leg was amputated 12/19/11. Thankfully there was no tumor, but her nerves were found to be degenerative. Life as a tripawd is Lucy's new adventure!!
I LOVE Bernie! He should have his own tv show 🙂
