Mason

This is Mason the Schnoodle. He and Huck are buddies--they could be brothers! They love to wrestle and run.

Handy Huckle




Huck does not like it when he gets left at home alone all day. This only happens about 3 days a week. Huck decided to pass the time, he would knock all of the clean laundry out of the hampers to show his displeasure at being alone all day. Or maybe he was just being "helpful". But judging by the guilty expression on his furry face, he knows he did something bad.

Huck & Coco

Huck loves to play. Especially with other dogs. Especially with little Coco next door. Coco is a shitzu puppy. She is about 1/10 the size of Huck. I am still trying to figure out if Huck realizes she is a dog and not a small cat or large hamster or just a stuffed dog toy. The latter is what worries me because Huck, like every dog I have played with, instinctually shakes his toys when playing. This is the motion that snaps a prey's neck, killing it. I have had terrible images flash before my eyes when Huck begins to play a little too rough with tiny Coco. Huck and Coco will play-bite each other, which is fine. But I start to get nervous when Huck will have Coco by the head, lifting her off the ground like he is about to carry her off to his den for supper. Sweet little Coco doesn't mind and will keep coming back for more rough play. Thankfully Coco keeps growing and Huck is not. Soon she will be more of a worthy opponent for wrestling and chasing. And soon Huck will know for sure that she, though small, is a fellow canine and not a stuffed toy to unleash instinctual killer moves upon.

Huck the Dawg

Mark Richt (UGA's head coach) asked all the fans to wear black to the game against Auburn. This spurred on a huge event: UGA Blackout. Even the players got new black jerseys. Tyler said it was the coolest UGA football moment he has ever been a part of.

Here are the boys all ready for the big game!

Let Sleeping Huck Lie

Sleeping puppy is so cute!!

He likes to spoon his blanket.
















He doesn't mind sleeping flipped over and upside down. This is in the "mushroom chair" he adopted as his own. I think he likes the way it "nests" him.


























I think he looks like a turkey in these.

??!


I was working on a new post and came across this image. Please comment and tell me what you see. I don't want to influence your interpretation by telling you what I see here. All I will say is that it's freaking me out but maybe I watched too many creepy Halloween specials.

These pictures were taken in succession, literally moments apart.



This one gives me chills. Please observe the upper left hand corner of the shot.

Dog Park

Huck LOVES the dog park. He likes to be chased and runrunrunrunrun laps. Today was fun because it was the first time Tyler came with us. Just as I had been describing to Tyler all this time, Huck ranranran and Tyler was amazed. Ryan and Missy came along and Audie and Koda met us there. It was the first time Huck and Koda have met and they became buddies quickly as Koda likes to run too. I got some cute pics of the boys with their dogs.








Poor Missy does not like car rides.
















Huck does!


























When we got home and it was snack time then nap time. Ryan is picking at the left over fried turkey.



















Cuddlebugs.

Hucklepoodle

Huck needs a haircut. He is beginning to look more like a poodle than a scruffy terrier. I bought some cheap clippers at Walmart so I could save some money on grooming costs. Tyler likes the poofier poodle look than the cute terrier look I prefer. I like Huck's hair clipped short (he feels so soft!) and I leave his "beard".

It's a dog's life



My brother posted this on youtube. I had to share it. Very funny.

Naughty Huck

This is naughty Huck. When Tyler is not home, he will sometimes go and get an article of Tyler's clothing and bring it to the living room. He loves socks in particular. I like this clip because he is very cute, though being bad, and you can see the gears turning in his head as he is processing what his mom is telling him.



Happy Thanksgiving!


This is Tyler's and my first Thanksgiving in our home. We had Ryan Rondorf and his coon hound, Missy, visit from Virginia. Huck LOVES Missy but Missy is still feeling out this scruffy ball of energy. She will howl at him, warning him to 'chill out'. I am very impressed with her calm nature and patience with Huck. He is a little pest. Our friend Audie came too. It was a great holiday with the 3 F's as Tyler says: Food, Friends. and FOOTBALL.




In the video above, Tyler and Audie are playing Guitar Hero in the background and Ryan is getting the pooches all riled up!




Missy has a commanding bark! I think she is more 'protecting her human' than 'warning' Huck in this clip.

Huck's first time on the W.W.W

There are so many funny things that our Huck does that continuously posting pictures on Facebook just doesn't seem enough. I was inspired by Ona's blog of Biggie's adventures, which I love to read!
I wish I had started sooner...
