On March 17, 2006, a little bundle of joy was born to Mr. Coleman and Miss Pearl. A wee laddy with jet black hair, a black button nose and the blackest of eyes. Little did that tiny baby know, but he would soon be called Duhgall Piper.
Little did I know, but my husband was looking to find a scottie dog breeder who had pups. His plan was to buy me a scottie for Mother’s Day. He could not keep his intentions under his hat and told me that he could NOT find any pups for sale. I snatched up the newspaper and voila’! Pups for sale – and close by, too! YIPPIE!!
Our entire family went over to pick out our puppy…and do you know that Duhgall was wearing a camouflage collar? Yes! Jordan and Spen loved that and so the rest is history.
Bringing you home and teaching you to wee wee outside.
The favorite outdoor chair.
Note: Duhgall LOVES beer, but he was just SNIFFIN’ the bottle – I swear!
Duhgall’s First Christmas. 2006.

Happy 1st Birthday!!
First licks of the cake for the birthday boy and then cake for all of his four-legged friends.
And yes, we had a piper for the party! Kisses for Jared!!!
Lots of naps with your kitty.
Napping after a day at the park.
Having a blast with your half sister, Maude.
Sitting pretty for a treat!
A much needed bath after bringing half the beach back with you in your hair!

Little Miss Fiona joins our family! You just love your little half sister!
Such a pretty face you have!!!
Kicking back with sister…
and running at the beach.
So wise for your years to know NOT to get close to those horns!
Each day I am grateful to have you in our life. You make the walk of life a little lighter with the love that you give to all of us. Thank you for that, little buddy!
So for you, Doogie P., this post is allllllll about YOU, little man, and we wish you a VERY HAPPY 5th BIRTHDAY!!!!

What a doll! I bet he's a great cuddeler!
Your Web site never fails to cheer me up, no matter the weather or my mood. And your doggie is such a sweetie, cocking his furry head in nearly every photo.
Best wishes to the little guy on his St. Paddy's Day birthday. And many more!

Such a cute post. Happy Birthday Sweet Doggie. He looks like a stuffed puppy in the one picture. Love the napping with kitty and with his sister. Dogs are so wonderful.

Scritches to Dughall and his sweet sister, too!

What a lovely post, I have to say that I love how you get the babies groomed. I'm very particular about Pippi and do enjoy your mix of a classic show cut with a modern functional do!!! We just "updated" Pippi's ear tuft style for summer.

Happy birthday to your special joy who seems to have brought so much joy to your life. We have 3, one of them is the puppy of our first two and we couldn't give it away. They all get along great, they all have their own personalities and are such a joy.
Happy Birthday! You are a cutie!!
This was such a sweet and happy post Becky. I loved all your photos. Happy Birthday to your dear Duhgall.

Btw, I usually don't have the sound on my computer, because I have family all around and the t.v. is in the next room. However, tonight I put the headphones on, and I just wanted to tell you I love that sweet bagpipe music!!
Blessings,
Marcia
What a wonderful post. I loved all those sweet pictures. Our little Eisenhower (Ike) turned 28 on March 11th. He would love to share birthday cake with Mr. D! Aren't we lucky to have such wonderful 4-legged sweethearts? Lori L
HAPPY BIRTHDAY to our hansome bro from your sisters Maudie MacFie and Roslyn Glen.
Happy Birthday sweet Doogs! You are such a handsome boy. I'm sure Mom arranged a great day for you filled with treats and lots of lovin. All the pics your Mom posted are great. So fun to see you cuddled up with Miss Socks, and Fiona is a doll.
Becky,
Such a sweetie pie! TOO CUTE! I am so impressed that your dog and cat can sleep together. We have 2 dogs and two cats and they are at odds for the most part. I don't think they will ever mingle!
Great pics. Thanks for sharing!
