Lexie has a precious face. That has to be a very gentle dog to let the owner put that on her.
My hubby is a retired NYPD officer. He went to the parade many times to safeguard the crowds. He always brought back many stories of fun and mayhem.
Thanks for the pingback, Frizz. It always helps to get them. I really appreciate it.
Have a nice Sunday …

Love the green in all of them. I wouldn’t dress my dog with the hairpiece though, even for fun.

I’ve seen a green river, but one thing I could not do was drink green beer.
