I always feel bad when I move my little dog away from a big dog thats in our path especially if its one with a reputation like pit bulls or german shepards cuz i stg everytime the other owners like "oh dont worry my dogs super friendly" cuz like, its not you.
something I saw someone point out once on i think reddit (I don’t remember who, and it was a while ago, but points to that cool smart dude) is that caligula, misty’s bird, is an african grey.
african greys are supposed to talk. but we’ve never seen caligula speak once.
so it’s almost like misty wanted a bird she could be friends with, talk to, etc… and she was denied a personal connection again.
she must be getting tired of chasing after love she never gets.
after all… when you can’t even confide in a literal bird? even your pets don’t desire your company?
Poodles Greenycactus, a quiet paranoid scientist who believes the world is about to end 24/7. She's prone to bite grumps when she's mad tho so be careful. I may draw a comic involving her and Snorpy, idk tho
Happy 51st birthday, Kimura!!!! In this episode, Kimura is joined by Nakao Akiyoshi and the two go to a dog cafe. The full episode is too long for tumblr, so it can be found with the subtitles [here].
Some fun facts and translation notes:
-When talking about a favorite dog, they use the term 推し (oshi), which means to be a fan or supporter of (i.e. an idol) or to be one's favorite (i.e. member of an idol group). AKA, to stan. For ease of reading, I simply put "favorite," but it's still a very cute touch to use that term for dogs!
-Tamura Masakazu was a prolific actor, but one of his most famous roles was the titular character in the police detective drama Furuhata Ninzaburou. This character was parodied by Kimura himself many times on SMAPxSMAP, and Kimura was on the show twice (once by himself, and once with SMAP as a whole). The drama they costarred in was Concerto.
Tonight, Nahni got her bath and trim. She's looking so cute! No weird ear hairs sticking everywhere, no more grinch toes.
Also, got a group picture with my girls and my besties babies. Minus Cynder who isn't old enough for a sit, stay yet. Also featuring a related visitor.
Brandy is looking fantastic and feeling great! ( she almost died less than two years ago.)
I can never get a decent picture of Blu and Brandy together. She's too hyper and wiggly and all over the place! She lost about 75 percent of her intestines due to twisting or something, ( I can never remember if they called it bloat, but I think it was.) they said she wasn't expected to survive, but she did! She gets injections and has enzymes added to her meals to help her body absorb nutrients. She turned four in April. She's Blu's best gal pal!
Met a tiny little dog at a cafe and she loved me. Her name was Winnie and after I pet her she kept gazing longingly at me. I would have stolen her if she hadn’t been owned by a very sweet German woman who told me my shirt was beautiful
I dunno why everyone says they hate grooming and hand stripping dogs. I find it so soothing. I would probably go for hours if Arthur didn't let me know he was done with it.
