Come for the politics, stay for the snark.
An energetic 2 yr old GSD can be a real handful, but Major really loves his dad..and he looks so innocent. 😂 pic.twitter.com/U0V4OwEB7t

I’m just glad to know that I’m not the only one maimed by my dogs this week. And I was reassured by many tweets of people with much smaller dogs landing on their ass. #doglife

I feel like you deserve some bonus pets:
Gabe is stretched from Bixby (see his back feet are pressed against Bixby’s butt) all the way to the corner…which is WHERE I SIT. Nope, not today. Zander is snoozing away, oblivious to the ongoing battle.

I assume (hope) this is some kind of parody?
After any adventure I like to enjoy a cold one, and I’m stoked to be partnering with @BuschBeer to tell you about #BuschDogBrew!
Now your pup can enjoy a beer after a day on the trail or on the lake. It’s made with simple ingredients, and your dog will love it. #BuschPartner pic.twitter.com/QrrgCHOBaH— john (@johncwingfield) November 18, 2020

Figured we could use something besides politics. Luckily, Scout turned three today, perfect timing for a little respite. I also have a WereBear post for a quiet time this week, too.
I would have totally forgotten, but I keep in touch with her brothers and sisters, so someone reminded me. Boy, has that bear shrunk over the years (and the scarf, too).
She is absolutely the best, sweetest, and good-natured Dane. She makes me smile every day and keeps Bixby on his toes with games of tug and lots of snuggles.
November is a rough month there, Harley, Jake and Bailey all left us. But of course, that means Zander and Gabe arrived soon after. But Bailey was the hardest. Bixby was inconsolable. The entire time I was in Paris, I was checking rescue groups and putting in applications during the night, since the time difference made sleep pretty much impossible.
When I got home, none of the rescues worked out and Bixby was getting more and more despondent. I was desperate. I began looking for puppies. The chances of finding a litter seemed a long shot. And from a breeder that was responsible and caring.
Then I saw this:
And that was it. Heart fully engaged. I checked out her breeder, had a long talk with her and realized she was head and shoulders above any breeder I’d ever checked out. The next 8 weeks of videos proved I made the right choice. These dogs are spoiled, socialized, lived in her sons’ laps, and were as close to potty trained as an 8-week old puppy can be by the time Scout-a-licious arrived.
There are more photos of both pups here.

Tuesday Evening Respite Open Thread: Dogs: We Don’t Deserve ThemPost + Comments (67)
Haven’t posted a Badger photo in a while, so here’s one:
He often walks along the top of the sofa as if he were a cat. That abused piece of furniture is a frequent launchpad when he gets the zoomies. Recently, he used that same commanding height to pounce on our Roomba.
I need to cut his damned claws, a task that we both hate. Daisy’s need to be trimmed too, but I don’t dread it as much as she’s usually not a big baby about it like Badger is. She’s stoical about baths too, whereas he acts like we’re trying to skin him alive. A big ol’ drama llama.
Anyhoo…open thread!
