All Dressed Up
I love getting dressed up for a holiday or special occasion! I’m so comfortable in all my different outfits that I can even jump through Loren’s arms while I’m wearing them. On our visits, Loren and I prefer me wearing nice flowers or outfits instead of a therapy dog vest because people just see me and smile instantly and moments of joy are what this is all about!
This was my outfit for the holidays
I wore this when I walked in the parade to raise money for the Pima Animal Care Center.
This is what I wore on St. Patrick's Day. The shamrocks in my skirt were shiny gold.
For Valentine's Day, I my skirt was made of lacy roses and I had gold flowers and a heart on my collar.
Loren and I met a young woman at Tucson Orthopedic who was wearing a beautiful flower crown. Loren asked her about it and then got some for me. My fur is so black that the flower colors look really nice.
I got lots of attention at the Tucson Mall in my Folklorico outfit.

Loren couldn't resist buying these wings for me at a costume shop in Tucson. By coincidence, a few days later he got an email asking if we could join a visit to Davis-Monthan Air Force Base. Perfect!
Sometimes I get dressed up for visits to the Children's Clinics.
This was from Halloween one year. I didn't mind the tutu but I tossed off the headpiece in the first 10 seconds.
I was getting calmer around people by walking with Loren at the Tucson Mall. He noticed that there was a Mexican puppet show there, so he asked if we could help publicize the show by dressing me up.
