Ah, here are the Carrot pics!! Wow, what a difference from his early puppy pics. I like the idea that the coat color softens and gets more subtle. What a beautiful boy. :)

Yeah, they look a lot like border collies whne they're really tiny. Especially the blues and slates.

Crunchy Carroty goodness! I love him! YUM! :D

And now to wash down that crunchy fresh Carrot with some Merlot...

I got a sequence of texts with pics from J the other day. They have two dogs: a grizzled old veteran border collie called Lucky, and Carrot's brother and litter mate, Merlot.

The texts:

HAHAHAHAHAAA! That is so funny! :)

Bad, bad licky-chops.

I have to say it was one of the characteristics I disliked about dogs.
Their wolfish appetite.
I knew a lab who ate the preparings of a pie - raw meat, raw pastry and all. The owner had only gone to pick the post up from the mat. Yuck.

Then I met Diz.
Used tissues, bread rolls, Wotsits.

Some animals are just hongry.

Toonces liked to gnaw on used Q-tips. I have no idea why. So I'd put them at the bottom of the wastebasket and he'd go LOOK for them. funny cat.

Pilau did on occasion steal food. Proper doggy stuff to steal as well - sausages, meat pies etc. But not very often. Beardies aren't usually that foodie.

Carrot has an annoying habit at the moment of stealing slices of bread if I have put a couple on a plate and buttered them ready for a meal.. but he doesn't eat them. He just likes stealing them, and then stands there licking his lips and looking puzzled at the buttery taste.

Of course labradors are one of those breeds that tend towards a more than healthy appetite and indiscriminate tastes. Rhodesians are the same. Amble-scramble once ate through the bottom of a tupperware container to get at the scones inside :P

LOVE the saucy beard! Too funny!

Usually our dogs are not so brazen as to steal off our plates, though I once left a plate on the coffee table while I went to get a glass of water and returned to a perfect dog tongue shaped clean spot in my freshly poured ketchup.

Hahhahahahaha. Love it.

Dana, you probably didn't see it, but those two pics reminded me
of this political TV commercial that ran countless times during the latest US election...

how could I have missed that one?!

Hahahaha. That was brilliant.

More pics of Carrotchops...

At hydrotherapy today, he had to wear floats on his back legs whilst he was walking on the underwater treadmill, to increase resistance. I wish I'd been able to take a photo, but I'm usually leaning over the tank walls feeding him treats whilst this is all going on so...anyway, picture Carrot wearing teeny tiny, bright orange, toddler armbands on his back legs and you can imagine how funny he looked :p

He's always uber relaxed after a hydro session:
