It's Meme Monday, says the Senior Mutt

It keeps dawning on me that Corvus will be 8 years old this year. EIGHT. Where has time gone? He is my eternal puppy...he can't be EIGHT.  If you saw him play, or demand my attention, or even just watched his day to day self, you would never in a million years guess him to be eight. The whitening of his muzzle betrays his exuberance, but that is the only sign my spastic Super Mutt is a day over crazy puppy status. 

While doing a search of him on Google for shits n gigs, I came across this meme on a Veterinary Association of Cape Cod blog entry. It made my heart catch for a moment, seeing him used in an advertisement for Senior Dog Vitamins. The irony though, is this photo was taken when he was a pup. So, I tried not to let it punch me in the heart too hard. After all, strangers on the internet don't know him like I do, and are only calling him "old" because of his infamous grandpa face. No one could watch this cranky little speed demon and call him old..

Anywho, without putting anyone through any more of my "But he's my forever puppy" woes, here's today's entry for Meme Monday. 

It's Meme Monday!

Does your dog have a licker problem? This guy does...and he's not ashamed to admit it. 

The Cute Bunny and The Angry Bunny

It's Meme Monday!

Things have been sort of busy around here lately. With the weather warming up, we've been outside more which has meant not as much time to play around on the interwebs.

But, I promised Meme Mondays, so I should halfway attempt to keep up with it. Here's my attempt.

It was my birthday yesterday (BOOOO, HISSSS) and "Corvus" made me a card. Little Bastard even told every one my age. WHERE IS THE LOYALTY???

Happy Meme Monday!

Hey, Ditto...

I don't want to alarm you, but there seems to be something stuck in your teeth.

Sorry, Anti-Bully folks, it's not a small child. It's just a stuffed hedgehog! Awws.

Dude, Where's My Balls?

Dog Shaming, or Confessions of An Asshole Dog?

Corvus is pretty easy to pose, typically. But, add in that magical piece of paper that also captures the interest of the rambunctious terrier sitting nearby, and suddenly it's was like I was asking him to volunteer for a beating. Both dogs were so fixated on that stupid piece of paper, I almost gave up. By the time I got Corvus to sit still WHILE THE PIECE OF PAPER TOUCHED HIM, I was too frazzled to worry about lighting and proper camera settings. I was just trying to keep Ditto from eating the damn paper.. 

Anywho, they aren't great and my editing "skills" are laughable (bite me)... but for our first attempts, they will have to do. The more I think of it anyways, I think they are more like "Confessions of an Asshole Dog" than Dog Shaming. He has no shame!!

 

The Many Faces of Corvus

Corvus is a chameleon. But just in the face. He can seriously change expressions so fast it will make your head spin. Bottom teeth out, or just one fang. Ears pinned back, or lazy and floppy? Alert eyes, or grumpy eyes? Or, the elusive HAPPY FACE? He is a dog with a thousand faces.

Too bad dogs playing Poker isn't really a thing. 

I think he'd be a pro at it.

It's Meme Monday!

It's that time again! Time for another Meme featuring Corvus. This is another favorite of mine, and it is wildly accurate. If he were able to speak English, I'm sure this would be one of his top five most consistently used words. He is King Of The Sass, after all.

Want to submit your own Corvus meme for consideration? You can choose any photos from the blog. In the spirit of fairness, let's say Ditto is fair game too. If you can come up with something clever that fits one of my photos, feel free to email your submission to me at Paws Jaws and Wrecking Balls at gmail dot com. (You'll have to do a little decoding there so that the bots don't pick up my email address and send me icky spam.)

HAPPY  MONDAY! Grump on!

Meme Monday

It's Meme Monday!

What the hell is Meme Monday, you ask? Well, it's a new thing I'll be doing to try to get myself in the habit of posting more regularly, even when time is scarce. As it turns out, I have about 150+ memes of Corvus collected from the internet from one single photo alone. See, I was a member of a dog forum way back when posting photos of your dog seemed harmless. Little did I know, someone would steal a photo of Corvus that was posted, upload it to Cheezburger.com, and my darling little Stinkface would become an internet sensation and the inspiration behind hundreds of memes. 

So, as homage to my boy, he will be getting his own weekly entry. Drumroll please..... Meme Monday!

Let's break the seal on this package by posting our first entry. I like to call it Slingblade Stinkface. Mmmm hmmmm.
