Ok so I came across this article the other day and found it way to cute not to share. In case you don’t want to click the link I will provide a quick run down of the story.
Wesley is a 6 month old Golden living in Michigan. His owners noticed that he was having trouble closing his mouth and was no longer eating. Poor guy. Well luckily there are doggy dentists and he was able to take care of Wesley. His teeth will be fixed in no time and although dog dentistry is purely medical and never for aesthetics, I am sure he will have a perfect Golden smile when them come off. Ohh and get this, he only needs the braces for a few weeks. Are you jealous Humans who had to wear them? Ha-ha.
It certainly made for some absolutely adorable pictures!
After rolling around in the dirt and grass Oshie developed an itch. Now that I think about it the fire ants could have been the culprit. With the warm weather we have had lately they have come our of their slumber and are everywhere in our yard. I don’t think that was the case though because I didn’t see any on him and he hasn’t scratched at the same area again. If you have ever been fortunate enough to experience the bite and sting of a fire ant…well then you know how itchy it is.
Enjoy this short series of shots of Oshie mid itch. I recently upgraded my camera to a Canon 7D Mkii and have been experimenting with the amazing 10 frames per second it is capable of shooting. My last camera (Canon T5)was maybe 3 frames per second. This is will be excellent for capturing action shots of Oshie to share on the blog! Enough rambling about Cameras, here’s Oshie!
He scratches so hard!Look at that follow through!I often wonder how that does not hurt.
Just a random shot of Oshie on the prowl from my lunch break this fine Friday.
Oooooo… I think I will go sniff that now.
But lets be real… we all know he is no beast. He may look big and muscular but in reality he is a big baby. The only damage he will do is eat all of your food and licking you until your skin falls off.
If you remember I recently commented about how wonderful the weather was over the weekend. The temperature was reminiscent of a beautiful spring day. The air felt fresh and there was a nice slow breeze. The sun was shining and for the first time in a while the yard was not a mud pit.
Fast forward to today. While it is still warm outside (something like 74 today), the weather has quickly turned from beautiful to ugly and even downright mean. We have multiple weather warnings for eastern North Carolina ranging from Tornadoes and high winds, to flooding and hail.
Tuesday evening after a walk. Cloud cover rolling in.
The weather slowly began to change starting Sunday yet it still wasn’t that bad. There was maybe a light drizzle of rain here and there coupled with the sun poking through the clouds. The temperature has stayed warm and the yard for the most part has remained dry. When Oshie and I woke up this morning it was again raining very lightly and the wind which had been non-existent was really starting to gust.
Around 9:00 or 10:00 am the news outlets and radio began to warn of possible tornadoes, severe thunderstorms and sustained wind up to 70 MPH. I am not worried about the rain, wind or even the possible severe weather. In all honesty what I am worried about is my poor pup and how bored he is going to be stuck inside during this crappy weather.
Oshie is happiest outside no matter what conditions are
Oshie always seems so bored when he is inside. He truly seems to be the happiest when he gets to roam free in the yard. He has seemed even more bored/depressed since Nancy left for Norway and so I have done my best to give him plenty of time outside despite the weather constantly being uncooperative.
So…hopefully this severe weather skirts around us or just doesn’t happen at all. I mean the weather man is wrong quite often.
Come on Mother Nature. Do us a solid and give us another few days of gorgeous weather. Thanks!
