Don't Fall In

-
      If you don't already know most bulldogs cannot swim, they are top heavy with short legs so deep water doesn't work out well for them; and if they can swim, they cant for very long. Tank found this out earlier in life, he once took a big jump into the pool and sank straight to the bottom. Thankfully he was just a puppy so I brought him back up easily, but ever since then he has been terrified of water. Except for this warm April day, I thought it was funny he risked falling into 10 foot deep water for a drink form our water slide when he had a dog bowl full of water! Maybe he likes to live life on the edge???
Note: I was on the other side of the slide in case he were to fall in.

Lesson Not Learned

-

Tanky boy is not a fan of water of any sort so after his bath he is super excited its over and runs around like a crazy dog. He looks pretty athletic jumping off the couch and sprinting across the living room. Well that is until his hind legs fall out from under him when he jumps back on! (Trust me, he still hasn't learned his lesson about this.)

Yummy Weeds

          Every morning I wake up this cutie to take him outside to do his business, he happily jumps out of the kennel and trots to the door every time. Now usually I am pretty busy in the mornings. I have class, appointments, or work I have to get to; but this guy does not care. For this is Tank's time to walk as slow or fast as he wants, or in this case eat some weeds. I believe this particular day I missed my 9 a.m. because I left too late and the traffic was astounding. I hope the weeds tasted good buddy.

Allergies Gone Bad

-

      I did not know this about dogs, but just like humans they can get allergies too! Allergies are partially more common in breeds like bulldogs, so every year Tank and I get to suffer through the weather changes together! Well this year this poor guy got the worse case of allergies and caused him to get a second degree ear infection, which actually through off his balance and he was very limited to do any activities for about a week. So you may be wondering about the cone... well since his ear was so infected he kept wanting to scratch it! So in order to prevent him from hurting himself from continuous scratching he got a cone. Which he absolutely hated, ran into everything, and was very very mad at me for putting it on him.
