Of all the things I thought I'd say to my son today, "don't chew the dog's ear!" is not one of them.

Posted by kelly Aug 28 '12, 14:15

Note: he didn't actually start chewing - he was grabbing the ear, trying to go for it. Ahh, good times.

Did murph react? - Will Hunting Aug 28, 14:16 43
- what a golden retriever-ish dog will put up with regarding babies is amazing. -- nm - Mel Profit Aug 28, 14:21 24
  - He's actually sharpei/lab/pit bull. - kelly Aug 28, 14:23 18
    - my brother's new (rescue) Golden Retriever Buddy is like that - very "needy" - and while it can be annoying I just feel sad for him mostly because - JenBro Aug 28, 14:27 1
      - He was relaxing a bit with the neediness/separation anxiety, but he's gotten worse the last few months. - kelly Aug 28, 14:29
    - He's alot of lab then from what I saw. He was a wicked awesome dog. [nm] - Mel Profit Aug 28, 14:24
    - The mechanics of that defy logic a tad. -- nm - Reagen Aug 28, 14:24 14
      - how so? -- nm - kelly Aug 28, 14:24 13
        
        don't make me draw you a diagram. -- nm - Reagen Aug 28, 14:25 12
        
        We're going on the assumption that his granny and granddad were enjoying some frisky from the other side of the fence -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 28, 14:29
        
        *gets run over by Dignan who is holding a pad of paper and a box of crayons* -- nm - Mel Profit Aug 28, 14:26 1
        
        LOL -- nm - JenBro Aug 28, 14:28
        
        Oh! haha. I thought you were talking about the subject, not the IM. I was like, how is it logic-defying that he's a lab/sharpei/pit? -- nm - kelly Aug 28, 14:26 8
        
        puppy 3 way! nm -- nm - groiny Aug 28, 14:34
        
        No, that's what I meant. One's a pretty big dog and the others are... not. -- nm - Reagen Aug 28, 14:29 6
        
        Huh. I had thought they were all similarly-sized. - kelly Aug 28, 14:34
        
        I still sort of do and don't want to know how the mechanics of Labradoodles happen... -- nm - Mel Profit Aug 28, 14:34 4
        
        I'm assuming standard, not toy poodles. - Reagen Aug 28, 14:39 3
        
        mystery solved! -- nm - Mel Profit Aug 28, 14:43
        
        I see quite a few corgi - lab mixes, and wondered how that works.nm -- nm - groiny Aug 28, 14:41
        
        are there *any* dachshund crosses? -- nm - zork Aug 28, 14:40
  - Meanwhile, my cats will have fucking none of that, thanks. -- nm - Reagen Aug 28, 14:23 4
    - I like cats, but this is just another reason that dogs are better. -- nm - mafic Aug 28, 14:29 3
      - They're actually surprisingly gentle with her - I don't think they've ever come close to scratching. It's just that they usually beat a hasty retreat. -- nm - Reagen Aug 28, 14:31 2
        
        yeah, they never get in grabbing or biting territory -- nm - Beaker Aug 28, 14:40 1
        
        they took a swipe at my neice once, but that was because she was basically poking them with a stick - Reagen Aug 28, 14:42
- holy shit, you guys spawned? congrats! -- nm - samara Aug 28, 14:20 13
  - I know...and it came out with the right number of toes, fingers, eyes and all that! - Will Hunting Aug 28, 14:22
  - We did!! Thanks! -- (link) - kelly Aug 28, 14:21 [flickr] 11
    - wow, look at those beautiful eyes! -- nm - samara Aug 28, 14:30 3
      - Apparently the *one* thing my kid got from me was my eyes. (yay.) -- nm - kelly Aug 28, 14:32
      - hopefully they stay that color. -- nm - samara Aug 28, 14:32 1
        
        They should. I think they change up to 6 months, and he'll be 7 months next week. Those are my color eyes so I am assuming they're staying. -- nm - kelly Aug 28, 14:33
    - his head is no where near big enough. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 28, 14:29 6
      - ...... -- nm - kelly Aug 28, 14:30 1
        
        *bobble, bobble, bobble* nm -- nm - groiny Aug 28, 14:32
      - I just wonder who's smile he's got - 'cause it's infectious! how can you not grin back at that? -- nm - JenBro Aug 28, 14:29 3
        
        that is all kelly there. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 28, 14:30 2
        
        Yeah, anytime I'm that happy, there's a burger in my mouth. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 28, 14:34 1
        
        well, I would have to see him with a green irish hat on to be sure. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 28, 14:41
- Sounds like you have a great dog. -- (link) - CrankYanker Aug 28, 14:19 [Image]
- He didn't react at all, but I'm not taking any chances. - kelly Aug 28, 14:19 2
  - Our lab pretty much let E do whatever she wanted (within reason) without reacting. - spamlet Aug 28, 14:22 1
    - We were worried about how he'd react to Nathan once we brought him home, as he's not the greatest at sharing us with others. :) - kelly Aug 28, 14:28
