MISS BUTTONS IS
10 YEARS YOUNG TODAY
WOW, THAT IS HARD TO BELIEVE THE WAY SHE PRANCES AROUND. SHE DEMANDS ATTENTION ALL OF THE TIME. BUT SHE SAYS SHE EARNED IT.
THERE ARE ALL KINDS OF MISS BUTTONS STORIES.
SHE REPRESENTED THE ARMED FORCES OF ROANOKE VA.
SHE WAS A RUN WAY FASHION MODEL FOR THE RESCUE MISSION BENEFIT DINNER IN ROANOKE, VA.
SHE GOES OUT AT CHRISTMAS TIME AND HELPS MOM COLLECT MONEY FOR THE SALVATION ARMY.
SHE HAS VISITED SEVERAL NURSING HOMES. WHERE SHE HAS APPEARED AS A CHRISTMAS ELF, AN EASTER BUNNY, A ST. PATRICK'S DAY SHAMROCK, A 4 TH OF JULY CELEBRATION QUEEN, AND JUST AS A WELL DRESSED BULLDOG.
SHE WAS MAID OF HONOR FOR GYSPY THE RED CHIHUAHUA. GYSPY HAS A HUGE WEB SITE AND IS WORLD WIDE FAMOUS. (SHE WAS ALSO IN A BIKINI ON THIS WEB SITE- HUBBA HUBBA)
SHE DATED THE NUMBER 1 BULLDOG IN THE COUNTRY-CHAMMPION ROCK MY WORLD. SHE ALSO HAD A LONG DISTANCE BOYFRIEND WHO WAS A CHAMPION BLACK STANDARD POODLE. SHE AND HIM WROTE BACK AND FORTH A LOT. HIS NAME WAS ROCKY BALBOA, HE PASSED AWAY A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO. THEN SHE USED TO HAVE ANOTHER BOYFRIEND WHO WAS A JACK RUSSELL NAMED CHESTER WHO RODE HARLEYS. BUTTONS WOULD NOT GET ON ONE OF THOSE WITH HIM. CHESTER IS NOW GONE TOO. MISS BUTTONS SAYS SHE HAS JUST NOT FOUND ANOTHER HERO YET.
BUTTONS NEVER HAD ANY CHILDREN SO SHE WATCHES US YOUNGER KIDS. SHE SAYS I AM JUST SO WILD, I NEED TO CALM DOWN. BUT I KNOW DEEP DOWN SHE THINKS I AM CUTE. SHE DOES SHOW SOME FAVORS TO SIR JUSTICE BECAUSE HE MARCHES AROUND THE RING LIKE A TOY SOLDIER. SHE WATCHES THE BABY A LOT AND THINKS SHE HAS POTENTIAL.
SHE WENT TO MANY DOG SHOWS AND WON LOTS OF AWARDS. MOM HAS PICTURES AND RIBBONS GALORE FOR HER.
WHEN WE MOVED HERE, SHE HAD 4 BIG BOXES OF COSTUMES AND CLOTHING AND A SPECIAL BOX FOR HER ACCESSORIES, INCLUDING JEWELRY.
SHE AND MOM ARE SUPER CLOSE AND SHE RULES MOM. FOR INSTANCE, EVERYONE HAS BEEN ON A DIET AROUND HERE EXCEPT US BOYS AND THE BABY. WELL, MISS BUTTONS GOT UP THIS MORNING AND JUST PUT HER PAW DOWN AND SAID NO DIETING TODAY. SHE SENT MOM TO THE STORE FOR A SPECIAL BIRTHDAY BUFFET FOR US BULLIES. WE GOT PEPPERONI ROLLS, FRIED CHICKEN (NO BONES), DONUTS, AND OUR FAVORITE DOG COOKIES--T-BONES.
MOM HAS A BIG OIL PAINTING OF HER IN THE LIVING ROOM. I TOLD MOM I SHOULD HAVE MY PICTURE UP THERE BUT SHE SAID NO. A SPECIAL FRIEND WHO OWNED BUTTON'S SISTER--MADDIE, HAD THAT PICTURE PAINTED FOR HER AND IT WOULD STAY THERE.
GRANDMA HAD UNCLE GREG AND AUNT SUSAN GO BUY MISS BUTTONS FOR MOM AS A SPECIAL GIFT. THEY GOT HER WHEN SHE WAS 8 WEEKS OLD. A NURSE AT THE NURSING HOME CAME INTO GRANDMA'S ROOM AND EXCLAIMED, "WELL, SHE IS AS CUTE AS A BUTTON". THE NAME STUCK, BUT SHE IS MISS BUTTONS TO US YOUNGER BULLIES.
THE REST OF HER NAME ENDS WITH "IN APRIL", ACTUALLY ALL OF US BULLDOGS HERE HAS "IN APRIL" IN OUR REGISTERED NAME. IT IS IN HONOR OF MOM'S LATE GOD CHILD, APRIL. SHE WENT WITH MOM AND AUNT SHERRY TO THE BULLDOG SPECIALITIES IN NEW YORK IN FEB OF 1999. UNFORTUNATELY, SHE WAS KILLED IN AN AUTO ACCIDENT IN MARCH OF THAT YEAR. MOM SAID IF APRIL HAD LIVED, SHE WOULD HAVE PROBLAY BEEN SHOWING US BULLIES AND WORKING WITH MOM IN BREEDING US. APRIL LOVED BULLDOGS. THE ONLY BULLDOG WHO ACTUALLY MET APRIL IS MISS ZIPPER. (AND SHE WILL BE 11 IN OCTOBER.)
THE PICTURE ABOVE SHOWS MISS BUTTONS ON HER LOUNGER. WE BOUGHT THAT AT A DOG SHOW FOR HER IN MAY. SHE IS PICKY ABOUT WHO SITS ON IT. SOMETIMES SOME OF GET ON IT BUT IF SHE CATCHES US, WE HAVE TO IMMEDIATELY GET OFF.
WELL FOLKS, I HAVE TO GET BACK TO PARTYING WITH THE GANG.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MISS BUTTONS AND MAY YOU HAVE MANY MORE.
HAPPY 4 TH OF JULY TO EVERYONE.
BE SURE TO THANK GOD FOR ALL HE DOES FOR US. AND ESPECIALLY FOR ALLOWING US TO LIVE FREE IN SUCH A WONDERFUL BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY.
MAY GOD BLESS AMERICA AND YOU,
TILL NEXT TIME,
LOVE,
SIR WALDO MCGEE
