This and That

I went hiking with Indy on a trail that was behind our campsite. He looks good as King of the Mountain, doesn't he?


I took this because I realized that I had too many pictures of him sleeping.



First, I need to say that I really wanted this picture to be right-side-up, but I couldn't figure out how to do it. But it was so fun that I couldn't leave it out.



This was at an overlook on our way to Sedona.



We were playing cards one night and Indy climbed onto the bench. We had to lift the table and prop his feet from underneath, but he finally made it up!

The One With All The Balls

I'm taking Indy to the vet tomorrow to be neutered, so I'm being nostalgic.

He'll look so different without his giant balls!

Here are a few of my favorite balls-out Indy poses . . .

Also, this Blog is rated PG-13. Actually, probably closer to R.






















This is a classic. He's always getting his toys stuck under everything and he'll put his face down on the ground with his butt straight up in the air. The furniture starts moving because he's stuffed his head under it and his nubby tail, balls, and wiener are swinging in the air. And, of course, Cody's right there to see what Indy's doing now :)


















This is Indy whenever he greets anyone. He sprints over with his cheeks and ears flapping, then does a tuck-and-roll to end up on his back. Then you get one of two things: the Red Rocket with juice or just a quick squirt of pee. This picture is taken right before the Red Rocket is about to emerge. You can kind of see that he's bulging a bit.


















When he gets really hot, he lays with all four legs out. It just won't look the same after tomorrow.


















This is Cody and Indy fighting over a bone. A nice shot of their butts!



















So gross to look over and see that!


















I call this his American Kennel Club pose. I usually put it next to a picture of the Red Rocket, but this is a balls blog, so I'll spare you.

I Never Have

This last New Years, I wanted to do something special for Indy. So, I went to the Three Dog Bakery near my house. It's a specialty shop that hand makes all of their dog treats. They use regular people ingredients and it really smells like a pizza place when you walk in there. I got Indy the "Bulldog Biscuit". It was big and looked delicious and I knew he would love it. It had a cookie on the bottom, then a layer of cream, then another cookie, and it was all topped with beautiful icings and sprinkles. It smelled awesome and looked like something they make on the Ace of Cakes show. They wrapped it in wax paper and put it in a brown sack for me. I really thought that the packaging didn't do it justice. I brought it home and put it in the fridge. I waited 1 whole week before I could give it to him. Every time I opened the fridge, I would look at the brown paper bag sitting there with that amazing treat inside it, wondering what it would taste like. Would it really be that gross? I mean, it's made from regular ingredients, how bad could it be, right? When New Years finally came, I grabbed the bag out of the fridge, unwrapped the treat, and just held on to it. I didn't call Indy over, I was thinking that I might break a piece off and see if it really tasted as good as it looked. Maybe, if I took some of the cream from the middle and a piece of the cookie with all of the icing, I wouldn't even notice that it was a dog treat. I was about to break off the perfect bite when I stopped and looked down at the bone shaped treat I had bought my dog for New Years. Really? Could I really do this? Just then, as I was doubting my decision to eat a dog treat, Indy came trotting around the corner wagging his tail. I gave him the treat and he loved it like I knew he would. So, I never have eaten dog food, but I kind wish I had.

My Favorite Pictures

This is Indy at Puppy Class graduation. He was the best in his class!















I took Indy with me on vacation last summer. We went to Disneyland and Big Sur, California. This picture was taken near Carmel.















This is the same trip. Indy was best buds with my dad. They were so cute!















I just like this one a lot. It shows his big brown puppy dog eyes!















I call this his Elvis lip. He does it a lot and looks adorable!

The Cutest Puppy Ever!

This is Indy the day I picked him up at the airport.

I bought him off the internet and they flew him in from Minnesota. The place I got him from turned out to be a little sketchy (shocking, I know) and he had 4 different ring worm spots and a bad knee.

Every one else is blogging, so I'm trying it, too.

We'll see how it goes.
