Ninja Pooch and Indicus Dog Bl0g

Makes me laugh every time. I give them both treats, Indy hides hers and harasses Gizmo while he eats his, eventually stealing the last bit of his. When he’s done, she’ll go dig up hers and tease him while he watches. This always drives him completely nuts and sends him loopy.

For example.. here Indy has just dug up her treat and is trying to eat it in peace, while Gizmo howls/growls/moans.. he torments her so. I especially like the way he tries to stealthily crawl towards the treat so she won’t notice.

No it’s not what you think, I think that might be illegal.

It’s become a daily ritual, we go to the dog park, come back, they eat, then get down to some wrestling and chasing each other. Indy is so good with Gizmo, she hunkers down and Gizmo pretend attacks her, relentlessly. They’ve started doing it during the day times a bit too.

Gizmo’s learned to get in real close so she can’t get a hold of him. He’ll usually tackle her from behind but isn’t averse to getting on something higher and jumping on her, e.g. she’s on the floor and he jumps on her from the bed.

I’ve seen them stop motionless staring at each other, psyching each other out, until one cracks looks away or jumps on the other. I often just sit and watch them doing this and sometimes wonder if they are showing off for me when they see they have my attention. Way more entertaining than t.v.!

This is like their favorite thing to do recently. Well, Gizmo’s really. When he gets up to full speed he often ends up kicking her off the bed. Pretty impressive for a pug!
