Puppy Crack

We try not to give Forest “people food” at our house but at some point he got his puppy mouth on some popcorn...and now he’s a popcorn fanatic. Regardless of where he is in the house or what he’s doing, even mid-belly rub, as soon as he hears those kernels start popping bam he bolts to the kitchen and stands guard for any dropped goodies. Forest then dutifully stalks whoever’s holding the popcorn bowl. There's no begging, no whining or jumping, just those puppy dog eyes intently tracking every movement. Sometimes he’ll interrupt our movie or show by sitting up and positioning himself on the couch right between us and the TV as if to say “Hey, I’m still here, being a perfectly awesome well behaved human companion who must surely have earned some of that puppy-crack by now.” 

Fine, puppy, you earned it. 

Damn your cuteness.

Happy Birthday Forest!


That’s right, our sweet, adorable, cuddly puppy turns 2 years old today! Unlike last year’s birthday mishap, Forest got a birthday present this year.

Thank you Grandma Dee for this kick-ass peanut butter treat!

 “What......the…?”


“Total awesomeness!”


The treat was so big, I broke it in half so Forest wouldn’t eat the whole thing in one sitting (there’s always a chance that new treats won’t agree with his delicate puppy stomach and I really didn’t want to have to deal with birthday diarrhea on the lawn later).

  "Nom nom nom"
























"Best (chew chew chew) birthday (burp) ever!"

Forest’s First Pighide

Our friend Lisa has mentioned how much her dog Bailey likes Bully Sticks. She even sent me an adorable photo of the puppy chewing on her “cigar”. Oh la la, very classy.




I thought about buying Forest some Bully Sticks, but then I researched what they actually are:
Bully Sticks consist entirely of pure bull penises. This is the only ingredient in the product.

Followed by the gross manufacturing details:
Bully Sticks are manufactured by first removing the bull penis, cleaning it and hanging it upside down to allow fluids to run out. The bull penis is then stretched and sometimes twisted, and then dried or smoked.

Sooooo, although I’m sure dogs love the taste of dried-up bull willy, my puppy ain’t going anywhere near them. I compromised and bought Forest his first pighide (which, as a vegetarian, was a really weird shopping cart item).

“For me?”


“I’ll humor you and just chew on this here end.”


“Hmm, that’s actually pretty good.”


“Holy poop, this is fantastic!” Nom nom nom


“Maybe I’ll try this angle.”


“What? It's yummy.”


“Shhhh, we’re having a staring contest.”


Not quite as classy as Bailey, but I think Forest is pretty happy with his cigar as well.
