Odd doggies

I don't want to hijack V's thread about crazy kitties on crack

Do your doggies do any odd stuff?

Do your doggies do any odd stuff?

Paisley, our six-month old Boston Terrier puppy, races into the kitchen whenever we fire up the Vita-mix or ice dispenser in the refrigerator door. She jumps, on all four legs at once, as high as she can to get to the source of the sound, very excited.

I guess she wants to try a margarita!

When Chloe was younger, before she had puppies, she would lie on her back with a toy and chew it, at the same time making a sing-song sound.

She also does the "bone dance". When she gets something other than her usual dog cookie, she runs into another room, drops it, then proceeds to dance around it. Wrinkling her nose, bowing down, circling the new treat. Then she wolfs it down...

But the first thing I think of is our Australian Shepherd mix. He has a very short tail (we think natural bob). So, he can't chase his tail.

But, he has fantastic butt fluff, kind of like a bussle.

He loves to grabs it and chase it. Round and round!

When he walks, he struts, and his butt fluff swings back and forth like a kilt. I think he may be a Scottish Shepherd!

Butt fluff! That reminds me, Chloe has no tail - she also has the silliest looking hackles. When she gets riled up and raises her hackles, all that stands up is a puffy section on her butt. We call it the Powder Puff of Death.

BEWARE THE POWDERPUFF OF DEATH!!!!

My dogs are completely normal.

Really.

OMG, that second shot! Too funny!

Oh, I'm laughing so hard at those pictures!!

All the bread/buns/rolls in the bread basket were stolen from the countertop two days ago, and they had a great time playing tug o war with the wrappers and eating it all up. Then they got the bag of potatoes down, and we could only find one in the yard. Guess they ate the rest.

This morning I was gone for five minutes before dh came down for work, and they had gotten in the trash and strewn it from the kitchen to the front door.

This evening when I came in--gone for 2 hours--the dry oatmeal bag I mixed up for my tour was lying in the dining room by the front door--thankfully not opened, yet.

The culprit in all these antics has to be the largest dog in the house, Charlie, the standard poodle/golden mix, who is the only one who can reach the bread basket. He's not even mine!

Save us from the evil toilet paper!

Bruiser, my 11 month old cattle dog, runs to his bed in the bedroom as soon as we turn the tv off at night, waits for me to get out of the shower to lick my legs "clean," steals avocado skins out of the trash (boy does he love avocado), trims patches of tall grass on walks by eating it, and his favorite sleeping position is on his back with all four feet in the air. Oh, and using a spray bottle as a punishment-by-distracting-him-out-of-a-behavior method has failed catastrophically since he loves drinking the water out of the bottle. Now it is just a game.

We have two showers in our house & one's rarely used..Anywho, we left a bar of soap there for quite a while then one day we noticed half the soap gone & some rather large teeth marks..

Yukon will eat pretty much anything

Also, I swear she's a kangaroo the way she jumps around..

My Shepherd chases his tail until he catches it.

Then he pulls it hard - and falls on his butt.

He never makes the connection.

And...this is my competitive obedience dog...?

Cody, our Chocolate Lab-looking shelter mutt will sell his soul for a carrot, sleeps flat on his back, and will periodically sprint laps around the backyard for no apparent reason. He's also one of the most vocal dogs I've owned- barks, yowls, grumbles, and growls. The grumbling is probably the funniest- he does it when he wants something, and DH and I will tear up from trying desperately not to laugh or give into him.

When we still had our pups, the older Border Collie would do a "poopie dance" whenever she pooped. She'd find a spot she liked, assume the poopie position...then spin in circles while tapping her back right foot. It was hysterical!
