Bee Stings

20150112-bee-stings
This is Luna and she was just stung by a bee. She looks like freakin Wiley Coyote. I have often thought that it’s not fair to everyone else in the world that I get to see so many dogs look absolutely ridiculous after being stung and they so few. In all seriousness, I do feel really bad for them but the one’s that present with just facial swelling tend to recover very quickly after some steroids. Still, I can’t help but wonder if I’m doing a disservice to the world by not making a bee sting coffee table book or even a Pinterest board.

Yoga With Loki

20150106-yoga-loki
I was finishing working out when Loki decided to start oddly positioning himself in various distinct positions. This one is my favorite, I think that in dog yoga this is called the shoulder crane and he’s binding the pose with a tail touch… impressive.

Stitch’s First Birthday

20141231-stitch-bday
Hello my name is Stitch Murphy and today is my first birthday. Do you see the birds on the wall behind me? Well, the stoopid hoomins put them up and they are actually fake bird stickers. I’ve killed about five of them. Happy Birthday to me.

Stitch’s First Christmas

20141223-stitch-first-christmas
This is Stitch Murphy’s first holiday season and, shockingly, he is not terrorizing the Christmas tree or decorations. However, let me take this opportunity to tell you what he is doing. He is obsessing over q-tips. If he sees a q-tip he will manically try to eat it. The last time he got a hold of a q-tip I accidentally left the bathroom drawer open for a moment and he dove into the q-tip box. I chased him around the house, pulled him out of the closet, and grabbed half of a q-tip out of his throat… I never found the other half. He is also chewing cords of all kind. Finally, and this one is my favorite, he is obsessing over Mr. Kitty’s food which is located up high on top of a cabinet in the bathroom where Stitch’s uncoordinated derpy ass cannot get to. He obsesses over it so much that the other morning while I was getting dressed he tried to jump on me and climb me like a tree to get to the food bowl. My stomach looks like I got slashed by Wolverine. On the bright side, I’ve heard of people with cats who can open cabinets and/or fridge doors… glad that’s not happening.

Creeper Cats

Every morning when I work out the cats are super creepers. Kitty sits by the tv staring and Stitch sits on the coffee table staring… Just staring.

One of my favorite patients EVER

20141210-odin-fave2
This is Odin and if his people were struck by lightning I would take him in a heartbeat. He is a Bengal but he acts more like a Labrador. He is very relaxed and friendly. He plays fetch. He is one of my absolute favorites.

Bubba and Chokolate

20141202-bubba-chocolate
This is Bubba and he looks like a giant boy version of Freya. I’m not sure that I’ve ever mentioned this before but Freya’s former name was Chokolate… yes amazing isn’t it… Chocolate with a “k.” In my mind, one pronounces her former name like Choc-o-latte. Well, clearly, Bubba and Chokolate were acquainted at some point in the past. I’m pretty sure Bubba was Chokolate’s pimp.
