happy squeak

I can has a dog! On the couch next to me!

He is about as zonked as I am, so we are not leaping about or anything, but omgdog!

The next few days will not be easy for my aides because they aren't supposed to interact with the dog at all. No matter how cute he gets. Which is pretty damn cute if you ask me.

Pup pup pup!

Yes there will be pics. Later.

Doggie doggie doggie awwwwwwww!

But oh, your aides, that must be *torture* for them.

Eeee. Any name yet? What colour? I am so happy for you.

Yahtzee! Black lab. Hard to photograph but utterly adorable. :D

Ohh. Our tenants had a black lab—he was one of the dearest and most mischievous big animals I know. He was like an animated ottoman. One summer he was running with a stick and swept the entire BBQ right off the deck when the stick got caught... then he ATE THE BRIQUETTES. There's a sound you don't forget. A dog eating lava rock from a propane BBQ. He thought it was the best snack ever. This is the dog who once swallowed a whole pound of shaved ham—in the wrapping. He also ate the tin pan from a frozen cake as well as over a dozen hair scrunchies. I've never met a stronger dog; he could pull over 200# at a full run. Overall, so well behaved, suited to a small living space, and gentle.

My aunt's black lab ate a bamboo skewer full of meat off the BBQ, and coughed up the skewer a few days later, bent but not broken. He survived, amazingly enough. He also ate a jalapeno pepper. Silly old fellow. He is the reason why I occasionally say "Although *some people* can't be trusted!
