March 12, 2008
March 12, 2008 shall no longer be known as March 12, 2008. It shall forever be known as the Infamous Mud Butt Debacle of 2008.
Teddy and Moose have been spending the days (while we're at work) in a large exercise pen that is attached to the front of Teddy's cage, with the cage door fully open. We thought it would be good for the two of them to have some contact during the day. Oops...
I came home yesterday evening and thought that I smelled something... umm... off in the building hallway. Chalking it up to one of my neighbors, I continued towards the apartment door.
As I got closer though, I knew that I was going to soon be on clean-up duty. The odor was sharp, getting stronger and emanating from our door.
Upon entering the apartment, I immediately headed towards the bedroom to assess the damage.
It was massive.
I guess Teddy had a little bit of an upset stomach because there were "piles" of poo all over the wood floors. There was also some on Moose's bed, and poopy footprints on both of Teddy's blankets, his bed covering and the towel I had under the water dish. I swear I checked the ceiling just in case I missed something.
It took three quarters of a fresh roll of paper towels just to get all the poo off the floor, and the rest of the roll to do an initial wipe down. Then I took the dogs to the dog park.
When Annie met me there, I gave her two options: (a) she could do the laundry, or (b) the floor scrubbing. She opted for (c) bribe me to do both (a) and (b) by buying me a handle of Dewar's. I acquiesced.
No pictures of the poo for you guys; just an image of Annie's clever little joke. Very funny, Ms. Barker.
Now why don't you just go to sleep... hee hee.

The Aftermath
The guys were tired after a good 30-45 minutes at the park, but if there's another dog around to play with, Teddy will go until he passes out or drops dead. We obviously prefer the former.
This is what they devolve into when they're too tired to stand up — practicing their ground game:
Sure they look ferocious...
...but they always end up like this:

Teddy likes 'em fiesty; Moose likes 'em easy
Teddy and Moose hit the dog park again yesterday evening. Good times were had by all (the best time was had by Moose... scroll down for the reason), and everybody went home just like we like them — tired.
On Monday, Moose... uh... made a new friend. A... uh... BOY-friend. Yesterday, the love of his life was back, and the two of them kept sneaking off to the corner of the dog park to wrestle and — how shall I put this delicately — be inappropriate.
Here is some of the appropriate material:

Teddy-Moose II is in full swing
I picked up Moose yesterday evening and met Annie at the Dog Park.
Ladies and gentlemen... it's on like Donkey Kong!
PS — Teddy can headbang with the best of them. Check out the moves around the 30 second mark.

Teddy met Moose!
Due to some family emergency issues this past week, I did not get to post anything about "Teddy-Moose I."
It was great! They ended up becoming fast friends, and both missed each other greatly after the night was done.
Here are a series of pics I lifted from one of the cameras that was there:
Teddy was very displeased upon returning home to our "no dogs on the couch" policy.
Moose will be staying with us next week (3/10-3/16). Reunited and it feels so good, indeed.

Teddy and Bruno "share" a stick
Bruno is my mom's black lab puppy. He is three days younger than Teddy and they are now the best of friends.
