The Whole Truth....


Roxy loves to carry stuff around....squeaky stuff is her favourite--but anything will do.

So Roxy was chosen to hold the flag for Australia Day.


Some of you commented on her holding the flag.
Apparently, Roxy likes to hold anything EXCEPT the flag.
 The picture taken was a set up.
Some of you may have noticed the blurry fingers as SHE tried to take the picture before Roxy dropped the flag. (Yet, again.)

  1. And there we all were, thinking Roxy was such a proud, flag waving Australian patriot.
    Toodle pip!

  9. Kaci always parades around the house with something in her mouth. She should have been named Toyinmouth.

  10. ha! we didn't notice a thing until you pointed it out Daisy! maybe Roxy has a little bit of Scottie in her? She like to do things, but only when it's her idea, not when she's told to? Mum says that sure sounds familiar to her!

  18. Didn't see them until you told us, guess Roxy only wants to hold her stuffs, unless there is a treat!

  19. Hey Roxy!
    Wow, I like carrying toys too! Gotta keep 'em right where they can't get away. Now that flag is cool, but definitely not a toy so I can see your confusion. BOL Looks like SHE worked it out and the pix are all adorable!

  22. We hadn't noticed the blurry fingers. Our mom is a Photoshop wiz and would have erased those fingers.

  23. Good job, Roxy, you gotta keep those humans on their toes!

  24. You're mum should have put a squeaker on it. I never noticed the fingers until they were pointed out......or until your mum threw you under the bus pointing out you can't hold a flag.

    Aroo to you,
    Sully

  26. We would have never known! We still think it has to be pretty hard to hold such a tiny stick in your mouth and thing you did a bang up job!

  27. Well, at least it isn't Photoshopped. Better that than digitally edited.
