I have some photos that went unused on the blog for various reasons that I thought you might like to see! Actually, the one above is a little bit of a cheat because I just used it on my post for the Secret Paws 2017 blog. What can I say? This is what happens when you leave a treat bag unattended around here.
This actually happened with both humans in the room. They just weren’t paying attention and next thing they knew, the treat bag was stuck on my head! The reason that this photo didn’t wind up on the blog is because my human’s boyfriend took it, and the file was a little too small. But I know you guys want to see it anyway — it’s not like it’s that much smaller than the other photos.
This photo was part of a test my human was doing for my 2019 calendar! Yes, we are starting early. She wanted me in the hat, not looking at the camera, and the tree to be out of focus. It’s a nice photo, but she wants to tweak things a little bit. This is the main reason the tree is still up.
Unlike the rest of the U.S., we are having rather mild winter here in southern California. So I’ve been having some outside time. It’s still cool enough for me to wear a sweater (at least my human thinks so!). This photo is just a touch out of focus — mainly a motion blur.
And here is a portrait from the same session. I hope you enjoyed today’s extras!

Great pictures Summer!
Nice, Furry nice! Minko used to be the finder of (stray) untended treat or nip bags around here…I bite any and all bags so they are left out of my reach…most of the time, MOL!
nice work on that treat package, Summer 🙂 thanks for sharing these extras – we like them all!

Great photos, Summer! You look pawsome in your pink sweater.
Luv da photos of you outside!
You and Harvey both are treat sneakers! We can’t find our Santa Paws chicken treats and had to post without them!!…..
The last 3 shots are amazing! And you look so cute covered in freeze dried chicken dust 🙂
An unattended treat bag is fair game! We like that pink sweater. It is really cute!
That last shot is definitely worthy of the calendar.

Great shots! I love the treat bag one and the second one of you and the tree…I thought maybe you were leaving it up for Orthodox Christmas (that is tomorrow). we used to have a big celebration on that day, but not any more…Mommy might let me have some kielbasa.

I love your pink sweater! Does Miss Binga ever wear it?
Toffee
This sweater is too small for her – it’s a little small on me! I have others that will fit her, though.
Really enjoyed looking at your photos and you do look lovely in your sweater.x
You cannot get any prettier Miss Summer! Just wow!
MOL MOL MOL Summer
“I regret nothing”…that was funny!!!
Love the sideways Elf hat

The 2019 xmas photo is terrific!
Those were terrific pretty Summer, you’re a beautiful model!
Fun!! We luff how you just get so much enjoyment out of your life.
My mom is grinning like the idiot she is, looking at these!
Ok, we gotta see that infamous treat bag on your head pic. Can’t imagine that you’re capable of getting a bag over your head, LOL. Bet that was funny! You’re so cute Summer. Your pink sweater makes us think of Valentines day! Purrs
My cat Jake thinks those Grandma Lucy’s treats are awesome too. I think all your pictures look great.
We always enjoy seeing pics of you! It’s never to early to start working on next Christmas.
Lady Summer, you’re right, that last one just might be 2019 calendar worthy, even if only OUTTAKES edition of the calendar, just being honest.
On second thoughts you might be able to get away w/putting the last one in the regular calendar & using the second~to~last one (the tongue shot w/you in the sweater) in the outtakes edition.
