She Really Does Do More Than Just Sleep
Widget is a little upset that I only show her on the blog sleeping ... as if that's the only thing she does. Although truth be told, she LOVED all the "princess and the pea" comments from Monday night's post. I said, "Widget, these nice folks think you're a princess!" But she's concerned that her fans see her only as a sleeping beauty type. So here's what she does when she's not sleeping -- I captured this yesterday afternoon on video in a 45-second clip:

That was the most adorable thing ever!!! What a doll!!

Oh my gosh....that is hillarious! I just love the little growling noises! And then the howls accompanied by straightening of her legs! Widget is soooooo sweet. And a very happy dog! Keep up all the wonderful things you are doing...you guys are amazing.

That is one happy doggie!!!! I love when my pups do that. I know they are happy and content. You folks do a great job! I wish all animal owners would take lessons from you!

I love watching Widget do about anything she simply buts a smile on my face when ever I'm having a bad day.

Oh my goodness...what a wonderful video - watched it over and over and laughed every time! Love that Widget! That is truly happiness caught on film. Love the howls with the straightened paws...makes a dramatic effect. Highlight of my day.

The princess was hilarious in that film clip!! She can also multi-task....scratch her back and roll around while singing!! Amazing beagle, she is!

That is HIGH-larious! Our little old Lady foster (who just got adopted after a year!) did the same thing, except for the howling, which is awesome!
I love Widget!

What a squirrel! She responds to the little voices inside her head with appropriate yelps.

Oh my goodness that has to be one of the cutest videos on the internet. I love how she was barking with joy.

That film clip was hysterical! You have a star in your midst--as well as a princess. Keep up all the good work you do--and keep those blogs and film clips; they are often the highlight of my day!

That is such a complete workout for all her muscle groups, including voice....AND she didn't even have to leave the comforts of one of her beds. She is an inspiration!! Was she heading off for a little yogut at the health bar?
