Happy holidays -- from my house to yours....

Enjoy the cookies with Wilma.

Someone's in the cookie jar

Pebbles might find coal in her stocking.

Coal in the stocking?

But coal seems to be yummy.

Coal in the stocking?

And the spirit of the season with Betty.

What child is this...

Betty believes there's more spirit if there are treats.

What child is this...

I often say that I live in a zoo - prarie dogs yipping, dog barking, bird screaming. It's a little whacky sometimes. :-)

Love your pd's!! We have two sister dogs, two girl guinea pigs, and a mommy and two daughter bunnies. At least twice a week, all run amok in our kitchen. Love their soft sweetness and whistles, squeaks, and grunts.

They have a blog of their own... Prairie Dog Digest ( http://www.prairiedogdigest.com ).

Enjoy. :-)

We are kind of trying to figure out how to get all three to pose together as the three wise prairie dogs... but that's very complicated. Maybe when my son and girlfriend arrive they can help us.

prairie dog nativity! Fantastic!

Notice the first photo is blurry - that's because I was pretty sure Wilma was going to jump out of my grandmother's cookie jar, land on my keyboard and cause my entire post to disappear and break both the cookie jar and the glass desk top. She was wiggling around all over the place...

And heaven forbid they lose their treat before you get your shot - then you have to chase them all over the house, risk being bitten by picking them up when they've gotten excited about running all over the house, and start all over again... .which is what happened with Pebbles. We tried her in three different stocking but she kept losing her treat in the bottom and refusing to peek out of the top.

Prairie dogs are a lot like kids...
