Foxy Brown. Ain't she purdy?
Foxy came home on Saturday; so far she is doing very well – much better than I had anticipated. Foxy and the kids are getting on great and like I thought, she's turning out to be quite a gentle dog…we all love her. Chewy, on the other hand, is fucking PISSED about our newest addition and the fact that said addition isn't leaving. He threw down the gauntlet on Saturday night; the cat/dog tensions are running high, but there's been no bloodshed. Yet.
One thing I can say about this dog for sure – she's got ENERGY. Lots and lots and LOTS of energy. And since me and energy broke up a long time ago, it's been a tiring few days. YAWN.
Hang on, though – the introductions aren't over yet. See the new button in my sidebar? This delicious, vintage-y one?
Click it. Go on, click it! It'll take you to a fabulous new blog that Deb has started, a wonderful showcase of all things thrifty and vintage and antique and, most importantly, not new. It's chock full of fabulously superb writers/bloggers/thrifters/lovers of all things vintage who are sharing their wares and the stories behind them. It's a super cool blog full of super cool stuff and I am so stoked to be a part of such a super cool idea (okay, waaaay too many super cools in that sentence). Check the site out – it's…wait for it…super cool!

Wow. With that mug it’d be love at first sight.
August 18th, 2008
Promise you’ll record the cat/dog smackdown and post it here, please?
Also? Another writing gig? Jeez woman…
August 18th, 2008
She’s BOOTIFUL. And so big!
August 18th, 2008
OMG!!! It looks like she is a German ShortHaired Pointer…one of my favorite dogs. Good luck with her. Maybe Chewy will start pooping in his box rather than on the floor….
August 18th, 2008
Awww, sweet face. want to squish it. can’t contain myself. aaaarrrghh.
And yeah, Pointers = ENERGY. Good luck w/ that. *smirk*

Welcome, Foxy Brown! Chewy isn’t running away, is he? That’s actually good, as it won’t inspire Foxy to chase him. :)
Oh, that blog sounds intriguing! I’m not vintage per se – but the vast majority of my (non-undergarment) clothes are from the thrift store. It just makes good sense. Plus it’s serendipitous.

Our cat was the new addition, but she instantly ruled the show even though she only weigh 1 pound sopping wet. And she decided to draw blood early on, just to cement her “alpha dog” status.
August 18th, 2008
she is beautiful!
August 18th, 2008
Smooches to the radical Ms. Foxy Brown. Enjoy your new addition!
August 18th, 2008
I loves her! She’s so cute!!
I wondered how you were going to make out. I pictured you stowed away in the bathroom rockin’ back and forth in the bathtub.
August 18th, 2008
Oh, she’s lovely. Is she an English Pointer? ANd OMG I loooove that you named her Foxy Brown. That rocks.
Almost as much as that website. Seriously, I went over last week and read posts about lovely things from all kinds of lovely ladies. I love a good vintage find. Even if lots of mine are from the curb…

our dog, Ella, is a pointer/border collie mix; she’s thru-the-roof on the energy levels. some days it’s like she’s done crack, she’s so nuts.
but the love. OH, the love.
your sweet girl is scrumptious. whatta kissable mug on that one.
August 18th, 2008
I am so glad you have left the dark cat side and come on over to the DOG side. What a pretty girl she is!
I hear ya on the energy break up.
August 18th, 2008
You do know that if I ever come to your house I will be throwing myself down for some sloppy doggy kisses before I even look at you!
She is one FoXay Laday!
August 18th, 2008
foxy brown??!! LOVE.
August 18th, 2008
“Foxy Brown”…yessssssss, what a name.
August 18th, 2008
Ah! The new addition is beautiful! WOW!
August 18th, 2008
WTF? Old and cool? Why the hell wasn’t I notified? OH! I just was…off I go!
August 18th, 2008
Beeeeaaaaaautiful. Seriously gorgeous. Congrats!
August 18th, 2008
Gorgeous doggie! I love dogs, as long as they belong to other people. Hubby’s grandpa has a German shorthair pointer. It’s a great dog.
August 18th, 2008
What a beautiful dog! And from someone who has a strong lack of liking for cats, pshaw! Get rid of the cat! :) Kidding. kinda.
August 18th, 2008
What a great name for a dog!
And she’s beautiful!
August 19th, 2008
Awww, she looks like a sweet dog! Glad y’all are enjoying her. Too bad for Chewie.
August 19th, 2008
Dogs and cats… meant by nature to peacefully coexist in one habitat. Kidding.
Hope there’s no bloodshed.
August 19th, 2008
I LOVE Foxy! So pretty. What breed is she? I think you mentioned it in your previous post but I’m too lazy to look. I think my boy is part whatever she is and part black lab, he has a similar face and the freckles…love the freckles.
August 19th, 2008
Oooh .. Foxy Brown is so cute! If she is anything like my friend’s guide dog, you will no longer have to worry about clearing Chewy’s poop up. (Sorry, lowering the tone)
August 19th, 2008
What a beautiful girl! Congratulations on the new addition. I’m sure the feline/canine tension will ease eventually. One of them just has to throw down and show who is top boss! (It will probably be the cat)
August 19th, 2008
She looks like my uncles’ dog Dream. She’s gorgeous. Brilliant. I’m so happy for you and the kids.
Have fun picking up poop! Heh. Welcome to my world.
Miss you.
August 19th, 2008
Looks like a springer mix. Very lively dogs, springers, but sweet.
August 19th, 2008
I LOVE that you called her Foxy Brown :)
August 19th, 2008
those are some kind of old soul eyes. welcome!
August 19th, 2008
Foxy brown is beautiful. A total doggy dollface.
August 19th, 2008
I *love* the name… Although seriously? You could have had my dog these days. She’s driving me Absolutely. F*cking. NUTS!
August 19th, 2008
When I was a little girl, we had a poodle named Foxy Lady (my dad named him). She lived for sixteen years!
I hope you enjoy her! :)
August 19th, 2008
I just love a new dog…even when it’s not really all that tiny. Sweet faced little doggie!
August 19th, 2008
She is beautiful! The cat will get over it….eventually!
August 20th, 2008
Great dog. Enjoy the energy; she will calm down though, don’t worry and if she’s anything like my Pointer, she’ll be the best damn cuddler you’ve ever met!
August 20th, 2008
Foxy Brown is so my kind of dog. The energy part, unfortunately, I figured, lol. But she’s a very foxy lady and I’m excited you guys got a dog. Chewy will adjust. :)
