Pets on Quilts Show!

We quilter's sure love our pets don't we! Thus, why it's always fun to participate in:
Aug. 17th the Show Begins!
 What a great opportunity to give our quilty companions a little time in the spotlight!

I so appreciate Jackson's quilty enthusiasm and all the virtual "belly rubs" you  have all shared with him this past year!And well, even though he never did  learn to knit this year,
no matter how long he carried that skien of yarn around...

... I do think he's sitting pretty for votes this year. (He looks kinda serious huh!?)

Cause I think if ya ask him, he had to wait and wait, and not matter how cute he tried to look, 

or how much he begged, he always seemed to have to wait a little bit longer many times this year for me to stop sewing and take him for his daily walks:

And when "cute" didn't work, he'd just fell back asleep! LOL!

And even though he never seems unaware of the nearby squirels,

and may have sometimes grown a little tired waiting for me to finish taking my quilty pictures,

I so appreciate having him as my enthusiastic quilty "model". 

This guy is my constant companion. He so enjoys modeling. Seriously, no treats needed for his participation. All's I have to do is start taking quilt pictures and he acts like I laid them out to take pictures of HIM! My husband laughs every time! But even better in my book, I love that he enjoys snuggling under my quilts and keeping me warm! Oh man, I love ya bunches buddy and am so grateful to be your "human". I couldn't ask for a more loyal companion.
I've entered this post in the Dogs on Quilts Category and look forward to visiting all your pet posts this weekend at the 2015 Pets on Quilts Show! (Voting begins August 27th...vote Jackson! ENTRY #31) I think he's campaigning for extra treats this year! LOL!! And from his look in that second picture above, he  seems pretty serious about it doesn't he?)  Thanks for stopping by! We always appreciate your visits.

    Awwww Val, this post is just packed full of warmth and sweetness and so many SQUEEE! moments I could turn inside out. Jackson is super and I think we all love him! It's so funny about him liking to have his photo taken.
    I don't know what we would do if we didn't have our furry pals as our constant companions.

    Hope the school year started off beautifully for you!

    Poor Jackson, sorry the knitting didn't work out for him. Maybe he just focus his attentions on modeling...he's obviously a complete natural at it. How in the world did you luck into the picture of him yawning? Adorable.
