your daughter is right. he is a ghost dog right now. He even has invisible ears but really cute and you are doing a wonderful job.

great update, and yes, he does look rather like a ghost dog

Love the little dogs! Beautiful neat stitching, too.

@ Raine...My aunt has a yorkie too and she is such a whirlwind she makes me dizzy just watching her, but she is just adorable even when she is springing around the room from the floor, to someone's chest, to someone else's head, to a chair and back to the floor again!! Mind you she is still a puppy though

That brings back memories! When mine was a puppy he slept on my head all night. He still sits half on top of the chair and half on my head. But he's too big to sleep on my head now so we both fight for my pillow. Sometimes I wake up stiff as a board because he has had me pinned all night. It's when he walks on my hair and pulls it that I start getting out of sorts! And it can be hard to breathe with a dog snuggled against one's face.

He is very sweet and yes you can see a bit of a ghost dog!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well as promised here is another pic...



Nearly up to filling in the ghost dog!

@ Raine....your little man sounds like a little terror too! Awww don't we just let them get away with murder when they are sooo small and cute, I don't think I could let my dog sleep on my head...I would definately suffocate!

Here is my poochy enjoying his holiday in Wales a couple of weeks ago...I hope you agree he is a little big for head-sitting!!

so cute. and a little less ghose, but easy to picture the missing pieces. And the real one is very handsome. You are right, it would be hard to sleep if he were sitting on your head. . I love your updates.

This is very pretty

Looking good

Looking good.

Your dear dog is so noble! No, I don't think you'd survive a night with him on your head!

I've read one is not supposed to baby or spoil little dogs. Yeah, right, good luck with that!

Your project is coming along wonderfully!

It looks wonderful

Yay He's done!!

Here are a couple of progress pics, first here is beardy dog with only one shade of brown...



Then with all the cross stitches complete....



Then completed with all backstitching done




The last pic was taken in the evening which is probably why the colours are a little different, but I'm pleased with the result

What a cutie! Great finish - though I do like beardy dog!

Adorable finish!

Fantastic finish. He is lovely

It's cool to look at the progression. From the ghost to a really precious doggie. Well done.

Carole

Woof! Woof!

Very very cute!!!!!!

Great finish, he is looking so smart in his tartan coat. Love the pic of your dog too, very strongly boss I would think
