Such a pretty Queen Trixie

Trixie was twelve this spring. Or 84 in dog years.  Today she actually agreed to sit for this years royal portrait.

She has more white in her muzzle this year but Trixie still jumps and plays like a puppy. Her Highness is still an active nurse.  I must say she finds me a disobedient patient. 

Our Queen Trixie has her hands more than full with my stubbornly independent attitude.  She will actually sit on my chest to keep me from getting up.

Nose to nose she insists I obey her every order.  Once I am safely in bed she finds her happy place.  Her Daddys lap.  After all she first and foremost a Daddys girl!
