Mischief Monday - The Hat Tax


It is that time of year, time to pay the hat tax! For those of you new here, the hat tax is a tax we pay because we are 'freeloaders.' We don't contribute to the household, so several times per year, we have to tolerate wearing hats and other costumes to amuse our people. Yesterday, we payed our first instalment for the Christmas season. 

Our official Christmas portrait will be shared on Christmas Day and our ecards will be prepared over the next week, but until then, you will see samples of our cooperation with this tax!

  2. OhMyDog! My first really good giggle of the week ~ THANK YOU! And Hailey, your "beard" needs
    a trim fur sure. If we were either of you, REFUSE to pay any tax, this embarrassment should not be forced on any dog!

  3. I am smiling at 6:46 in the morning, which means your hat tax is working as it should.. can't wait to see the others, tell your Mom I think the one you have on Phod should be switched with Lee's.. hope that will be one of the photos we see... I have not tried a hat tax on beau, but now I might

  5. Well in my humble opinion you pay your hat tax 87 x's over.
    Phod if you go low enough maybe that hat will fall off.
    Lee you appear to be plotting behind that beard.
    LOVE LOVE LOVE this

  8. Hey guys! Of course doggies contribute to the household! You bark at strangers, keep your house free of little sneaky invaders like bugs and mousies, you make sure your humans get up on time, and get enough exercise, PLUS, you provide hugs and kisses whenever they're needed! I even provide free shredding of any squeaky toy they might put on my head.

  10. I think it is a double-tax day when Phod is wearing a grannie cap and Hailey is wearing both a hat and a beard! The indignity of it all...

  13. Momma and I had to reach an agreement on hats. I thought I won, but then when we took this year's Christmas photo, I discovered that she had found a terrible loophole!! You'll see when I send out our card.
