What’s In Her Mouth?

January 5, 2016 By Jodi

It’s been a while since I’ve written about something crazy that Delilah did. Truthfully, most of the things she does that makes us laugh (or pull our hair out) isn’t typically caught on film.

Sometimes I don’t have the camera handy and sometimes I have the camera but I can’t take the photo because I have to stop her from what she’s doing.

Hubby and I have talked about setting the Go-Pro camera up, but as of right now, we haven’t done it.

One of the things I struggle with in walking the dogs, is keeping Delilah from eating anything she finds. Most of the time it’s things like crab apples, bread (from the people that don’t know that birds aren’t supposed to have bread!), all kinds of food crap that people drop in the road, or that animals pull out of the garbage and poop.

Yum, yum, what's on the menu today?

Most times I can keep her from eating stuff by saying, “Ick” or “Leave it”, but in order to do that, I have to see it first

And she’s fast. She’ll be sniffing about and then all of a sudden she dives and boom, she comes up with a ‘treasure’.

Sometimes she’s slick about it. Which is exactly what happened on Saturday. We left the house and headed up the street. Sampson was in front of me but Delilah was lagging behind.

Something made me turn around. I’m not sure if she gave me a subtle sign, if I sensed it or I just wanted to encourage her to move along, but I turned around and she had something in her mouth.

I wished I’d had the Go-Pro on because she looked like she was smiling.

Yeah, she had a whole (nasty) banana in her mouth.

She was doing her best to munch it down, but still trying to walk at the same time.

I toyed with the idea of snapping the photo first, but I was afraid she’d scarf it down in the time I managed to pull the camera out.

I picked the banana up on the way home and tossed it out in the poop bag. Now it really tastes like shit. 😉

The banana is mild compared to some of the stuff I’ve pulled out of her mouth. What’s the craziest thing you’ve taken away from your dog?

You Make Me Smile – January 3, 2016

January 3, 2016 By Jodi

You make me smile (or laugh), the sweet, funny, loving things my dogs do on a daily basis that brings a smile to my face, or a laugh to my lips.

Sampson, the way you know (and let me know) when  you’re ready for bed or you’re ready to leave Auntie Lolly’s house….

Golden Labrador

You make me smile.

I took this photo Thanksgiving weekend at my sister’s house. Sunday morning Hubby and I started loading the car to go home and Sampson let us know he was ready to go.

Ever since he was a puppy, he’s always known when HE was ready to go to sleep and would put himself to bed. But this was the first time he ever just climbed in the car before it was ready to go.

Your turn, do your dogs let you know when they’re ready for bed, or when they want to go home?
