Ninja Pooch and Indicus Dog Bl0g

We wuz out rollerblading along Ballona creek the other day. Indy and Giz running alongside me, and mostly in front. Caught Indy striking a pose for me mid stride..

I was driving the car the other day, Gizmo was sat in the passenger seat. I looked at him and he was looking at me with his tongue sticking out like this. Note this isn’t hanging out intentionally as you can see his mouth is clearly shut. His tongue doesn’t actually fit and often protrudes just a wee bit..  you can tell when it’s been sticking out a while cos the end goes a bit dry and I try and catch it before he pulls it in.

This amount of tongue sticking out was toooooo much!

I almost crashed laughing.

No you can’t have any. Bugger off.

I buy these raw bones things from the doggie pet store, and usually split one between the two of them. I’ve found Gizmo tucks into his immediately and it keeps him busy for a few hours, but Indy goes and buries her half. Then she harasses Gizmo while he’s eating his.

Later, sometimes days and days later .. Gizmo finds the buried half. They’re typically rather stinky by this point and I think they’ve started rotting. Yup, ewwwww. He gets his paws and mouth covered in nasty gunk, and likes to jump all over me to express his gratitude. Ewwwww ..

.. but what, something on my lip? What does it look like? WHAT IS IT?!

Poor Gizmo had a nasty dose of some weird wart thing for a few months. They kinda came out of nowhere and he ended up with 3 or4 of them at once, most of them inside his mouth but one HUGE one outside on his lip.. as you can see from this pic.

Some dogs love baths. Most hate them .. these 2 pooches hate them with a vengence. I have to play with them a bit, do something like throw a towel over their head and pick them up and quickly carry them in and drop them in the tub before they realize. Otherwise they just kinda tense up and spread all their legs out and it’s hard to get them through the shower door.

I’d just given Gizmo a bath here too. Funny he’ll run into the ocean but freaks out in the shower. He goes nuts afterwards though, and Indy chases him while he rubs himself on any dry furniture/clothing/bedding, etc. to try and get drier.
