My Funny Valentine
My mommy made me dress up,
for Valentine’s day today.
I really didn’t want to,
but she made me anyway.
My tutu’s tight, the bows bug me,
and who knows about my crown,
I feel like a dog gone wrong
I may never live this down.
If Valentine’s Day was for the dogs,
I’d always get a treat,
and I wouldn’t have to dress up
or try and look so sweet.
But then I heard about my friends,
so at least I’m not alone,
their mommies made them dress up too,
I can almost hear them groan.
I don’t think I can stand here
much longer for today
so take a peek at Bella,
and maybe Gibby wants to play.
And then come back to visit,
or you’ll miss my treat today.
I put some things together,
for a special give away!
Just leave a comment and tell me,
that you think I’m really cute,
and maybe I will pick your name
on Wednesday for the loot!
And here’s the loot; one of you will win a box of See’s Candy (assorted yummy chocolates) along with a bundle of Moda Bella fat quarters, 16 total!
We’ll be back on Wednesday to announce a winner so you know what to do! Have a doggone good day everyone! Bella and Gibby are having a give away too!
Hugs,
Anne Chelsea

You are really cute and patient. A cat would never wear a costume and pose for a photo shoot. Happy Valentines Day!

Love the pictures! Reminded me of when I was a little girl and my friend I would dress up our little dogs, put them in our doll strollers and walk up and down the street pushing them along. Thanks for sharing the pictures and the poetry was super!

You look sooo cute it that tutu…it’s very slimming too. I hope I win…I LOVE See’s candies, but sadly I haven’t had any in a few years (we can’t get them where we live)…and it goes without saying that I LOVE fabric too.
Gale Lavers
Chelsea must have lost weight, because she certainly looks adoreable in the hot pink. Aren’t we pet owners lucky these cutties found us. Happy Valentines Day.
Becky in Georgia

I always love the pictures of Chelsea–such a sweetheart. Looks like she is full of personality, and a good sport, too.

Anna
Dear Chelsea,
I may just be a lonely dog in Bend.
But I have a special bone to lend.
I’d treat you right
I do not bite
I have big paws
and some say a handsome jaw
you are sooooo beautiful tonight…won’t you be my Valentine???
Lorid
Well Chelsea, I have to say it’s a little over the top!! But it is Valentines day.:) Thanks for the early morning smiles!!
Marj
Chelsea is so cute she should probably be on TV! Then we would have something lighthearted to watch. Thanks for offering such a generous set of candy and fabric.
Tudy Cook
I love the outfit. Could not pick a better one for the day myself.
Donnelly
Too cute! Happy Valentine’s Day!
Diane
Chelsea-
You are beyond cute!
Suzy
Chelsea, you look so cute in pink! So how long did it take mommy to chase you down to dress you? LOL! Happy Valentine’s Day. :o)
sewprimitive karen
That’s a lovely poem, Chelsea! Please please pick me and I hope you have gotten out of your Valentine’s Day outfit by now :-).
Jeanie
Beauty and brains in one cute little package! Not only are you adorable, you are quite the talented poet. Hold your head high and be proud!
michelle
Oh Chelsea… you ARE really cute and, obviously, a real trooper for letting your momma put you through all this dress up stuff. But, how can she resist?!? Just darling. Happy Valentine’s Day Chelsea and Anne.
Danielle
Just adorable! Chelsea really is a trooper. Happy Hearts Day!
Sandi
Oh, poor baby! She looks kind of cute in the first photo, but in your collage at the bottom you can tell she knows that this just isn’t right. I remember putting training bras on my doberman. Three bras, of course.
What a wonderful giveaway – quilter’s candy and candy candy!
Sue
Dogs must really love their owners for they put up with so much-they are little love bugs. Chelsea DOES look cute but her face is saying, “Please Mom, get rid of the bows and crown.” Good thing our pets love us so much. Pink is definitely Chelsea’s color.
Kaaren
She has that look…”I’m only doing it for you, you know”…and also,”If I really must, but just remember the treat after all this fuss. How am I ever going to live this down?”
She’s pretty special, Anne. A keeper for sure…but you already knew that. I just get the feeling that she knows what the posing is for too.
Annie Davis
Chelsea looks happier in some photos more than others. Either way, she is dressed with LOVE!!!
Love the bows around her “ankles” :)
Katie
Chelsea looks like a pretty princess with all those bows. And she seems to be tolerating it a lot better than Bella… I would love a chance to win the beautiful fabric and CHOCOLATES! Thanks for the chance – your blog is great!
DebrafromMD
Oh how adorable! And quite the poet too – a dog of many talents.
Mama Spark
Oh you poor sweet dog. The indignation of it all! You really are quite sweet and adorable so how could Anne resist?? I hope you got some really nice treat for dressing up!! Have a happy Valentines Day, Chelsea (oh and you too Anne!)
Messy Karen
Chelsea, you are such a cutie, couldn’t i win you, oh well, chocolate and fabric it must be!
Diane Gill
I just love pink and Chelsea, that is definitely your color!! I know that it is your mommy’s favorite too. Thank you for modeling for all of us on such a special day.
holli
Chelsea, girl, you strut that stuff. You look great! And I love your poem too.
Roseann
Chelsea, you look adorable in that Tutu! Happy Valentines Day! BTW, love the Moda Bellas too.
Lin
Chelsea, you certainly are a good sport, aren’t you!!!! And how clever was it for Mom to write a poem about you. There is always something unexpected going on at Bunny Tales. (BTW, my Tisket a Tasket quilt is on my quilt frame now – lookin’ good too). Wouldn’t it be grand if I could say I won a prize from a Valentine Doggie? Hope you pick me.
Brenda
Chelsea –
I must say your outfit is simply to die for !! I bet all the other dogs wished that their mommies made outfits for them !! You are one lucky dog !! And not to mention that you are quite the poet.
Have a wonderful Valentines day !!
Deb G
Chelsea, what a cutie you are! And such a good girl too, to tolerate being all dressed up! Happy Valentines Day!
Sheila S
Chelsea,
Love the ribbon boots
they really are a hoot!
The fabrics are really nice-
and would make a great prize!
But really, give me the Sees,
Candy suits me to a T!
Sorry, that’s the best I can do.
Guess I’m not a poet.
Marie
Cute does not begin to describe it. After seeing her outfit, I need to go change into something else. Please add me to the drawing.
Mary
Chelsea is the cutest. I have a little boy Scottie named Angus he is getting a red spotted bow to wear today. He is behind the chair hiding right now I think he has telepathy My new armoire would love to be decorated with Chelsea,s Valentine favors Happy Love Day to all at your house. What fun you have over there !!
Shelley
Chelsea, you have never ever looked so sweet!:) Your mummy made you a lovely costume and I must say, Chelsea, you also write lovely poetry! You should be published! Please draw my name, sweet Chelsea!
Jacque.
