If I had the ability to share the stench that surrounds my dogs after they fart, I'd love to post it here. I think everyone should experience Boxer farts at some time or another. It really is an experince unlike any other. I often imagine a cloud surrounding their rear ends. It often resembles the cloud of stench that surrounds "Pig Pen" in the "Charlie Brown" cartoons. It's a sudden burst of horror that fills the air.
Yes, if I could share this with you, I would. Buddy and Belle have no problem sharing this with anyone, anywhere, anytime. They know that sharing really is caring.
Lots of woof!

Treats and Drugs
My little (big) guy has a sore on his paw and has to take an antibiotic. Best way to get a dog to take meds? Conceal the pills in sausage. I'm not sure he even chews the sausage chunks. He definitely doesn't realize there's a little something extra in them.
Luckily he doesn't notice the pills. If he did, and didn't want to take them, that'd be one more struggle to add to the list.
His ears are always getting yucky and infected. It is super hard for me to clean them very well and he ends up having to get ointment. This is one of those times. He hates that little bit of ointment and tries to hide. If he'd just let me clean his ears, we wouldn't have to deal with the ointment. Silly dog!

Drinking Dogs?
Apparently someone (I suspect Belle) wanted an afternoon cocktail. Luckily they didn't open it.

Attack Dog
Apparently Belle does not like the noise that bags make when they pop. I received something in the mail today and it was packed with those Airplus packing things.
Some of the marks left on me when she jumped on me. This is one of the five areas covered on scratches. There were a few worse than that bit theyre on my belly and due to my excess skin (see my other blog) I don't deel comfortable posting them.
I guess she means business.

Shadows
I cannot do much of anything without these crazy "kids" following me.
No privacy in this house! I can't even relax in the tub without company... They just sit and wait for me to be done. Belle has quite the comfortable seat!

Buddy
He reminds me of Winnie the Pooh sometimes. Kinda lazy, kinda doofy, but always sweet and definitely cute.

The Beggin' Strips Incident.
I will admit that, many times, I'm partially at fault for the antics of these two crazy "kids." I leave things where they can get to it. Sometimes I realize it and think "nooo, it'll be fine. They won't be able to get that." Sure enough I will come home and they will have gotten into whatever it is.
For Christmas I purchased them two bags of Beggin' Strips. They opened them, with my assistance of course - they're NOT genius dogs, on Christmas. Those bags had been sitting under the tree since then. Until yesterday.
Apparently after a week and a half, they realized that the treats were there. Nothing that was there (the treats, four small fleece blankets, two dog toys, and new dog dishes) had been moved. It was in the exact place it had been, with the treats securely in the back.
Yesterday I came home from work to find that....Someone had found the two bags, ripped them open, and over-indulged in some treats. A treat feast was in order for the afternoon, apparently. I can't say who the guilty party was, as I never can, but I have my suspicion, and it's pointing toward Belle.
In the past, before Buddy had a sister and when she was too small, it was him. He was the one who ate an entire pan of brownies at my parents' house. He ingested 16 ear plugs (the orange, squishy kind) that I counted, after they came out. For all I know I may have missed some. He ate not one, but two, of those big containers of cookies. He tipped over a crock pot, unplugging it and making it fall to the floor, full of those Lil' Smokies and sauce, also causing the lid to break. He's had his fair share of incidents of knocking the trash can over.
However, Buddy is best described as a lazy lump. He cannot stand on his hind legs for very long. I'm not sure if he can't because he's too heavy or if he just doesn't want to. He certainly couldn't stand up on his hind legs while using his front legs to get whatever object of desire is on the counter. Belle has learned this trick. She is small and somewhat weaselly. She loves to use her paws (most often to hit her brother in the face when he's getting attention). I think she's also been guilty of getting into the trash too. Buddy is a year older and has calmed down a bit. He's content to snooze the day away. He rarely plays with the toys, and sometimes I come home to find the entire basket of toys flipped over and scattered around the living room. This is not the work of Buddy.
Anyway, so being that the treats were under the tree, tucked in the back, I have my doubts that Buddy did it. If he had tried to get back there, he probably would have knocked the whole tree down. I'm pretty sure that Miss Belle Ann was the snatcher of the strips.
Of course Buddy loves his food, especially treats, so he couldn't resist taking part in the treat feast. I came home and could smell the Beggin' Strips on both of them. If there was a Beggin' Strip breathalyzer device, they both would have failed. Miserably.
They didn't get anymore treats the rest of the day, and so far none today. I'm shocked that no one has had an upset tummy, that I'm aware of. For once I have not awakened to a pile of dog vomit on my floor. Thank goodness!!
I can only imagine what these two will get into next....

The Birth of Two Farting Dogs
As I was watching television earlier, I couldn't help but giggle listening to my dogs as they slept. They're so loud. One was snoring. The other was dreaming and making whimpering noises; also had the leg shake going on. These noises remind me of the noise that "Popeye" made. They make these noises often, but sometimes they are much louder than others. Unfortunately when they sleep they often pass gas which isn't nearly as cute or funny. Tonight was one of those nights.
That was that. I decided that I'd start blogging about all of their adventures. I'm sure this won't be a blog I post on daily, but I'm sure it'll be often. They seem to always be getting into some kind of situation or another. They're quite entertaining, to say the least. And who doesn't love a good dog story or two?
