Happy birthday to my best little lady in the world. You were my best friend through it all for the past 6 years, and now you will be my son's best friend too (although fat Leonard has been campaigning for the position for quite a while- although I'm sure she would give it all up for a bowl of lobster spaghetti 🐱)! And as usual we want to wish her siblings Moe @moemoe_sofie, Zoe & Sadie a happy birthday! You will always be Eenie, Meanie, Miney and Moe to me!!!! 🎂💙💚💛❤️ #dogsofinsta #mineyisthenewblack #mineypuppette #littleblackdog #happybirthday #mybestie #nothinglikehavingadogtocomehometo #adoptdontshop #rescuedog #rescuedogsrock

When you're kind of a grump, and you're not feeling the holiday cheer and just want to do your own thing. #bahumbug #fionaapple #grumpycat #me #ow #tistheseason

Lucky magazine #tbt what fun that was! So blessed to have traveled the world and had so many cool opportunities. I can't wait to share my stories with my son!!

Lucy Bean is my rescue focus of the day! My friend, Nick, who happens to fly rescue animals to safety for free, has offered to bring her to ny if anyone wanted to open up their homes and hearts to her! Lucy Bean is blind but is as sweet as can be. Not aggressive or reactive to other animals . She is 10 years old and just needs some love! The only thing she has is dry skin , but don't we all this time of year? Please consider giving her love for Christmas! And then forever, which is not that long to a senior pup. Contact me if you're interested. Nick is flying in next week and can bring her in to say hello! #animalrescue #adoptdontshop #lucybean #blindandbeautiful #specialneedsdog (at Heritage Humane Society)

Thank you for protecting us, keeping us safe by putting yourselves in harms way. Thank you for protecting our freedom and our democracy, and for being brave in fighting for all of us. #happyveteransday #godblessamerica #thankyou #patriotism #gratitude #annetartani #veteranscalendar #veteransday

It's a good morning to put it all in perspective and be grateful. Our outlook is our choice 🤓 #enjoyyourperspective

I post this NOT to be provocative. In today's day and age, women's boxers are like wearing old school knickers anyway! 😉 I post this because I used to feel that muscular legs were not sexy. I was envious of girls with super skinny legs because the magazines told me that this is what society found attractive- not strength. And now, I'm actually building them to be more muscular if I'm going to compete and start a new standard of what Is beautiful to me. Clearly, I'm not ripped at the moment, but that's because I took like a month off! But I'm back 💪🏼And I would rather be strong than skinny, because the muscles in my quads helped me carry around an extra 50 lbs last year, and I use them to lug a 22 lbs baby, his 10 lb diaper bag along with my 60 lb dog, and they are the same legs the women in my family had as they were picking olives in their fields, and carrying their children with. They are my foundation and on them, I will build. #ihaveawaystogo #butiwilldoit #fitnessgoals #momswholift #annetartani #girlswithquads #lilianavanlaar #trainingtocompete2017

Magoo and Lucy Bean are two special needs Jack Russells. They are being transported from Idaho because they are having trouble finding them homes and one of my rescue partners will be flying them to safety and asked me to see if I can help find them a home here in New York! One of them is blind and the other one is blind and deaf. Please please please share this far and wide! I will get all of the information regarding their ages and temperament and repost, but in the meanwhile, if anyone you know has a big heart and would even foster them, please please share with them! Let's open our hearts and help these beautiful, innocent creatures! #adoptdontshop #rescuedogsofinstagram #specialneedsdogs
