The belle and the bean just wouldn’t be the same without their chicago dog.
And on Monday, July 26th, Jack had his 9th birthday!
So it is in his honor that I present the many looks of Jack, our hometown boy…
****************************************
Look at how young we you were!
As cute as can be! And with green eyes to boot!
It didn’t take long for our obsession fascination with dressing you up to begin!
With our move to Memphis came your Elvis look…
Then Woody from Toy Story…
And Yoda, all before you became…
…a Big Brother!
But the costumes didn’t stop there!
There was Dr. Seuss…
…and The Cowardly Lion
A flower…
and a cow!
Happy Birthday, buddy! Mom, Dad, Kate and Madelyn all love you!

So that is adorable! The Elvis and the Yoda are my favs.
PS I made my first trip into Chicago recently and loved it.
So freaking cute!
Hmmm. Wednesday’s about dogs this week, eh?
Sweet boy….Our first dog — before babies — was such a peach and holds a very important place in my heart.
Yours certainly looks like a patient soul. What’s the costume for Halloween this year? If it’s like my house, you’ve been talking about October for weeks…..
Awww…Happy Birthday. Loving the Yoda costume. I have tried to put antlers on my dog – he is not having it!
Happy birthday Jack! from a northern neighbor & cheesehead ( please don’t eat me). I am checking out some different blogs on WW this week. Mine is always full of mystery… LOL! pop over & link up if you would like to play along!
OMG. Adorable. my sister in law has a cocker and she dresses her up, too. They are too cute.
He proudly wears each one. Hope he had a wonderful b-day!
Jack is an absolutely beautiful dog. He really is. I love all his costumes. I can see facial expressions in some of these, like the flower one “Really mom?”. Hahaha. I love cocker spaniels. I miss ours.
Happy Birthday, Jack!
so so so darn cute. happy birthday, Jack.
I LOVE him. Cockers are one of my favorite breeds. Those costumes are all fantastic. He looks truly enthused in that flower picture!
And I LOVE THE LITTLE PUPPY PIC! AWWWW!
Great pics! Love the Yoda costume
My hubby and son are star wars freaks so I will have to show them that.
Way too funny – and cute! Princess Nagger keeps wanting to dress up our dogs…I think I’ll have to let her!
he is just precious. happy barkday Jack.
Cute as can be! We are getting our dog the first weekend in August. I am excited and nervous all at once. I have agreed to be the one to take on all the major responsibility. What was I thinking? And why didn’t I wait until the kids were in school? Apprently I like the challenge or something.
Oh, how cute….my favorite is Yoda…
I love that you dress your dog up… and I love that Jack lets you do it! I think Yoda is my favorite costume, though Elvis is a close second.
I was thinkin’…who the heck is Jack! ha ha Love these. He’s definitely part of the fam!! I love his flower suit..so cute. Our doggy son is turning 14 this year. He’s a lab so doesn’t have much time left. But don’t know how we could ever replace him!!
These pictures are so cute! I used to dress my dogs up for Christmas card pictures. They knew to pose for each shot! It was really sweet! Thank you for your comment! I need to get healthy! Have a great night!

Ok this is so stupid, but I just realized that I never looked at your “My Gang” thing & I thought that the “Chicago Dog” this whole time – was your husband.
I feel really stupid.
Cute dog & I love the costumes!!!
Oh those pictures are just adorable!! Happy Birthday to your dog!
Ahhh. . . . .that is very cute ~ what a sweet patient doggy to let you put on all those costumes! Our daughter has an adorable Shitzu that she turns into a pumpkin at Halloween ~ adorable!
Liz,
I see you on Twitter & I know plenty that follow you but this is my 1st time on your site. LOVE IT & YOU!
Anyone that dresses up their dog is aces in my book. I’m one of your newest followers!!
I cannot handle how adorable Jack looks in his outfits – especially the cowardly lion and Elvis!
happy birthday to Jack! I think it’s awesome you dress him up like that..I’m not allowed to dress our dog..I did work out a “hankerchief clause” but no further, with good cause, I admit- my mom and her side of the family go pretty overboard with pets. Still, I sigh when I think of the possibilities. I think my dog needs a raincoat..I almost sell dh on it, but then I have to add- and a hat, and cute boots. He says, “no”.
your dog is adorable!
Happy Birthday to Jack! I am a mommy to two awesome babies Max and Holly! I think truly great people are animal people! Great pictures!
