PICTURE FRIDAY: BIGGS AT REST

  
Biggs is so cute, even at rest.  He prefers to sleep on his side.


But sometimes, he sleeps spread eagle. 



He truly is asleep.  Que cojones, right?!

PICTURE FRIDAY: A GUESSING GAME

  
Biggs can destroy any toy in under 10 minutes; 30 minutes if he likes it.  And if he really likes it, it could last a couple of days.

Below are some "after" pictures of his toys.  Can you guess what they once were?  Let's see how right you are.

Figure A.


Figure B.


Figure C.



Answers:   A. Was a ball. // B. Was a tiger. //  C. Was a starfish.
Did you guess any correctly?  Better luck next time.

DO DOGS HAVE ADAM'S APPLES?

 
I was hugging and petting Biggs and I felt a lump in his throat, and I thought to myself, do dogs have Adam's Apples?

And the answer is...Yes, male dogs have Adam's Apples.

In fact, I found this great article -- from The Internet Pet Vet -- about how to give your pet a quick exam, and it talks about the male dog's Adam's Apples.  Read it at link below.

PICTURE FRIDAY: SQUIRREL TERROR

This hateful squirrel has been terrorizing Biggs.  It started last weekend when we first saw this squirrel run across the porch screen.  (Thank God, for the screen!)  Biggs went crazy.  I didn't realize what it was until I saw it with my own eyes. 

Mr. Squirrel has come back five times.  Biggs goes crazy each time.  The last two I threw water at Mr. Squirrel and he almost fell off the porch -- three floors down -- but he caught himself in time and scampered off.

I hate squirrels. Hopefully, Mr. Squirrel learned his lesson.  If not, I'm going to have to let Biggs have him for lunch.  I know, yuk!  But maybe one little bite will scare him off.   Fingers crossed.

NEW ROUTE


Biggs and I have a new route which gives us a 25-minute workout.  We hit it every morning.  We never ran into other people but now that the weather is getting warmer, we are getting a runner here and there.  But mostly we still have the whole place to ourselves.  We love it.  And we love the name -- Real Good Park.

PICTURE FRIDAY: SHOW ME YOUR HANDS!

Biggs can turn his hands inward.  You gotta see it to believe it.


And look how long his nails are.   I'm jealous.


Biggs wishes everyone a good, hot weekend.
God bless everyone.
