Al and I opened presents tonight, since we’re heading to Vegas tomorrow and didn’t want to lug them there.
He got me a Flip video camera. I got him Bacon Salt*. Hilarity ensued.
Yeah, you can expect more of this shit in the future. No need to thank me.
*Among other things.
The tail! The eyes!
Pets are the best. I’m going to hug mine right now.
Oh man, I was totally gonna send Al some bacon salt. It was MY idea — I turned you on to the web site!
Now I want to hear about how it tastes. Do tell. Obviously it SMELLS good.
Solly says, “I smell BACON!!!”
It was MY idea — I turned you on to the web site!
Actually, I think HE was the one who first told me about it. Shockingly.
Will definitely let you know how it tastes when we find out.
The tail! The eyes!
I was happy that my first outing included a prime example of how his tail never. fucking. stops. I mean, it might have been influenced somewhat by the bacon smell. But it really is like that all the time.
What breed(s) is Solly? I ask because the little (okay, not so little) furball sitting at my feet looks very much a close kin. He’s part beagle and part pug, so the vet says.
Oh, and Solly may well be the second cutest dog on the planet.
Dear Dog,
I love you.
Love,
Ottermatic
Dear Bacon Salt,
I love you, too.
Love,
Ottermatic again
Oh Solly is so cute. Is Solly a corgi mix? I have a corgi mix. Normal body, short legs. Not unlike me.
Solly is very sweet, he looks so good natured.
How you like the flip? I got one last month, I like.
Awww. I love the “Hi mommy!” face Solly is giving you.
I now want a puppy for Christmas.
This is why I’m cheating on Ken with Solly.
Ummmmm, Bacon.
And Puppy- I am in a happy place just watching it. Thank goodness my girl is asleep on the floor so she doesn’t know I am cheating on her….
There’s only one thing that smells like bacon and that’s BACOONNNNNN!!!
Also? ZOMG yer dog is teh cute!! I just want to grab him and snuggle him and rub my face in his fur. Well, maybe I’ll wait until this cold goes away before I do that last part. ;)
*wag wag wag* :D
Put the guesses together and you’ve got the answer: half corgi, half pug. And all snugglebunny. (And Lisa, we took him to Beaglefest last year, ’cause they welcome all breeds, and everyone assumed he was beagle/corgi.)
How you like the flip?
This is all I’ve used it for so far, but it’s stupid easy, which is exactly what I was looking for. So I like.
Oh, also, I should clarify that the reason I’m laughing like a fool is, Solly is MUCH less food-motivated than Lucy, usually. Lucy will eat anything that’s ever been in the same room as food. But Solly will reject actual food if he’s not in the mood, so the fact that he was licking plastic bottles in an effort to get at the bacon salt cracked me up.
solly solly solly solly solly solly solly

I think I like that music in the background … =)
I think I like that music in the background
Good ear! And thank you!
(Al Threat Level: Red)
Heh. But now he’s going to spend 4 days without Solly. I’m not sure if that raises or lowers the threat level.
Awesome. You’ve got such a great laugh! I love hearing bloggers’ spoken voice in a post. Thanks for all the awesome cuteness.
Bacon Salt, I should have gotten that for my sweetie, as he loves bacon with bacon on top just like Al. We opened presents last night and before hand we were doing some last minute shopping and I was railing about how I would never wear slippers, blah, blah, I love bare feet. He doesn’t like this because I have teh diabeteez (so does he) and wants me to wear something on my feet. What was the first thing I opened? Pink Isotoners, Pink? Pink? I am so not a pink kind of a girl but I laughed anyway! Merry Christmas and eat lots of baby donuts for all of us!!!!
I must amend, he also got me Seasons 1 and 2 of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, that show makes me spit soda out of my mouth!! And 3 really nice shirts, so I’m happy!!!!
Lucy sounds like my Mugsy. He subscribes to Dave Berry’s theory that a dog will eat anything that falls on the floor. If it isn’t food they can always throw it up later.
About the only thing my husband likes more than bacon is salt. If only I’d known.
And Solly is adorable! Even though we’re mostly cat people, I love looking at other people’s dogs. Have fun in Vegas!
Solly shows me what would happen if my corgis had tails. Too adorable. And oh those soulful pug eyes!
yay!!!!!!!!!!!!! thanks al. can’t wait for more vids.
OMG, you have a foot stool dog, just like I do! (actually, I have two). Corgi-shepherd mixes, both of them. They (corgi mixes) are the best dogs ever.
Awww, what a cutie! Solly is adorable, Kate, and you weren’t kidding about the tail wagging! It doesn’t stop for a moment.
