Flashback Friday-In Memory of Dr. Zira

On Monday we received a package from Sid's dad over at Pug Slope, 
a lovely portrait of dear departed Dr. Zira 

http://www.pugslope.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Dr.Zira_.jpg


I love how this picture captures Z's sweet, expressive gaze, and that here little pink tongue is hanging out (she had the cutest tongue).

Her siblings seemed to like Z's  picture too, Norbert sniffed it thoroughly

 (perhaps detecting some eau de Sid).

We placed the picture on a shelf in our living room, underneath portraits of Tubby, Norbert, Ping, and Bob (and a professional photo of Dr. Zira).



Once we find a suitable frame we will  hang it up with the other portraits where we can see Z's sweet face looking down on us each day.  

Please order a portrait of your pet from Sid's dad today!

    Love it! Where can you go to get your personalized pet portrait? Also...I was printing a copy of Ping's Strawberry birthday cake for my Toby Moses, who turns 6 on May 19th. I noticed it says 2 1/2 cups...but then it doesn't say what of?!? Please e-mail me at mindyslimmer AT gmail DOT com so I can make my birthday boy this scrumptuous cake. :)
    Much Love,

    Hi Urban Hounds!

    My dad is really happy that you like the portrait and wanted to thank you for posting it up on your blog today. He said he liked seeing it in its new home. Those other portraits you have look really nice, too! Where did you get those done?

    Have a great weekend! I bet you guys are so excited to pick up Weasley!

    -Love,
    Sid.
