PANT PANT PANT

Took the dogs to the dogpark yesterday and I realized something. Any younger guy who shows up alone with two cute dogs to a park that has lots of (single) mothers watching their kids there will probably be regarded as a creep. Because the dogs will inevitably attract the attention of the children and thus the children will attract the attention of the dogs. Then they'll want to hang out and the mom will need to watch the kid while the guy needs to watch the dog. So they'll have to chit-chat. So, yeah. Uh. Right. Not my motives. I have a girlfriend. Seriously. Well, now that that's out of the way, here are some goofy pictures of the dogs.

Leo loves car rides. He does the stereotypical lean-out-the-window-just-far-enough-to-not-fall-out that many dogs do. And he tends to put his front paws on my arm which I tend to keep on the windowsill on the off chance that he sees something that he must pee on, play with, eat, or sniff. Those are pretty much his modes of interaction.


And I'm not sure how he feels about the bandana. He loves when I put it on, but he always takes it off. Goddamn dogs and their mixed signals. They should just evolve like the rest of us did.


If you had ANY doubt about whether or not he was happy, check out this picture. If you're still uncertain, I'd like to point out that you should be focusing on the dog face part of the picture. In the top left. Yes, the tonguey part.

Sir, on the other hand, tends to just sleep through car rides. He either does the downward dog pose, like so:


or scratches on your shirt until you let him burrow into it. That's right, chihuahuas are burrowing animals. If you've ever been around a chihuahua for more than a few hours, you'd probably see him or her sleep (they sleep 14-18 hours a day, what a life!) and a chihuahua's favorite place to sleep is under a blanket. Here's a good picture of Sir doing just that:


He almost looks like some sort of crustacean deep sea monster... the upside-down mouth does it for me. So enough about the car ride. We got to the park, went on a walk. It wasn't unbearably hot for me, but it sure was intense for the dogs. More panting than I've ever seen.


So we took plenty of water breaks. Sir is a sloppy drinker. Or maybe all of the backsplash that Leo makes just gets caught in his stache. Can dogs have mustaches or is the definition somehow stricter?

.... wikipediaing ...

Nope. A mustache is hair, while Leo has fur. Dang.


Next up is this priceless picture series of Sir making faces while in my arms. Half-yawning, half-panting, while wearing the biggest shit-eating grin. Enjoy!
