Caught this naughty boy un-stuffing a toy! When a toy gets damaged enough and gets holes, all the dogs love pulling the stuffing out. I keep re-stuffing it though, it’s the official “stuffing toy”. They make a mess, but it works out because they don’t tear up other toys, since there’s one toy that’s meant to be un-stuffed. This picture is from his first time pulling the stuffing out, and wasn’t sure if he was in trouble or not.
Sparky has 8 canine teeth. He has all 4 of his baby canines, and the permanent canines have erupted, but they did not push the baby teeth out the way it normally happens. He’s lost 3 of the baby teeth so far (one upper baby canine tooth is still there) but this picture is from when he had all 8, 4 permanent coming out and the 4 baby teeth. It can cause problems if they don’t eventually come out, but there is some time still left in that window. The fix is having the veterinarian remove the baby teeth (they don’t have roots, so it’s not a huge deal).
The rules are simple. Just don’t get on my pillows. I also used to say “Don’t get on my blankets” but that fell by the wayside so I now put a ‘dog blanket’ on my bed to keep it clean during the day. And this naughty girl pulled my sleeping blanket (not dog blanket) on top of all my pillows, and set up shop. “Do what you must, for I have already won” — Wolfham
Sparky is one of two that aren’t ‘rescues’ in the sense that I did not pick them up off the street. He had a loving home, but had too much energy, and the previous owners just had a new baby. He was too rough with the other kids, so I took him in. This is after his (maybe) first bath.
I was given this huge, but broken, inflatable outdoor Christmas ornament. As I was laying it out to work on it, DDG (DeeDeeGoat, her nickname) decided to claim it as her new toy.
Freshly brushed pretty girl.
His first time playing with a stick and he LOVED it.
The weather was gorgeous, there was a nice breeze, and the sun was shining. And rusty took full advantage of the situation!
I think what I’ll do, is upload a single picture, then have a bit of background about the picture, and maybe a quote from the point of view from the dog in the picture.
My boy’s got a ridiculously long tail and is extremely photogenic.
