Dog Diva

You know your shoe existence is getting bad when the only person getting new shoes in your house.....is the dog. After our fifth visit to IKEA to buy my new desk, Dave's new desk, shelving for the roof top study and more wine glasses (we only bought two with us because we always break them), we stumbled across a pet section in IKEA here! Yes, they luuurrrvvvveee their animals in Taipei.

Gucci is now the proud owner of a fancy pink boot, straight out of the 60's:



.....and a sports shoe (not sure what this is reminiscent of):



Not only does she have new shoes, but Gucci gets to go to the dog spa once a week for a full grooming. The only problem is, the lovely Taiwanese women who groom her have a little problem with the big, black, slobbery female Labrador who does not look like a girl. The solution?





I don't think I have laughed so hard in a very long time. This is the dog who runs up the Yangmingshan mountains and rolls in the mud on a daily basis. Gorgeous!

Priceless. Why are there no pictures of the dog actually wearing the shoes?
