The holiday spirit around here seems to involve ripping the stuffing out of any Christmas-related toy. Alayne took these photos the other day of Daisy going to work. Not satisfied with the candy cane in the photo above, she retrieved Santa from the box and started in on him:
Watching Daisy go after these toys brought Dexter over, who figured he might be missing out on something:
But, not being much of a chewer or toy destroyer himself -- nor having any teeth left to do the work in the first place, he wasn't sure what to make of it:
So then he decided to lick his paws instead:
He soon wandered off, leaving Daisy alone to try and rip Santa's face off his fluffy little body:
His face still intact, she decides instead to just let Santa know who's boss:

At one point yesterday we were No. 2, but as I write this about mid-day Tuesday, we are back to No. 3 in the Firefox Challenge -- at over $11,000! Some people have asked whether we get all the money from this contest -- I addressed this in the original blog post, but here's the relevant section again:
"We will get all the donations made through Paul's page, plus the $5,000 that Mozilla (the organization that created and maintains the Firefox web browser) has already donated to Paul and each of the other celebrities participating in this contest. The $25,000 is in addition to all those funds!"
I love each and every doxie story you share. Those little characters sure can bring a smile to ones face and heart. :)

Oh, thank you so much for pictures of my favorite breed. It makes my Christmas. My beloved Bruiser (may he rest in peace - not likely!) shredded every adorable toy ever given him within seconds. Shaking it to death was also a favorite ploy. Balls were the only toy to stand a chance with him. Merry Christmas Daisy and Dexter and thank you for the happy memories. :) :)

Daisy is just showing Santa what she's capable of if he doesn't bring her what she wants for Christmas!
And I just love Dexter. It would have been funny if you could have gotten a picture of him doing his version of toy destroy...gumming it to death! :)

The last photo is too funny! "Listen fuzz face, this is my turf!" You tell 'em Daisy. I think I just fell in love all over again with Mr. Dexter, what a sweetie pie.
