Naughty Dogs on Thursday

Today's Dogs on Thursday post is brought to you by Cooper.







What, no pictures of Cooper? Nope. I will, however, show a picture of his handiwork:


There, in Cooper's favorite chair, is what remains of my sister's fishing magazine. Astute readers may remember this post from last month which shows Cooper lounging in "his" chair. In that post, I talk about how much Cooper loves his chair, and mentioned that:
"He loves grabbing ahold of the loose cushions and shaking them like a shark. I know I should discourage this behaviour, but he enjoys himself so much, I just can't tell him 'no'. "
I should have listened to the wonderfully wise Sonya, when she commented:
"Now don't get mad at him if he takes the shark impression a little too far."
Oh, well... Would'a, should'a, could'a, right? At least it wasn't a knitting magazine! Whew!

Last but not least, the multi-talented, awesome dog-mom Nichole presented me with this award!
Thanks, Nichole! If anyone made it to the end of this post, I would like to pass this award along to you. Hey, if you're reading this blog, you've gotta love dogs!

He still is very cute even though he shredded the magazine. Tell him not to do it anymore ;)

I love that Cooper. I was just looking at American Brittany Rescue...and there are some special boys on there. I'm a little tempted. Oh goodness...

Sissy's in love. She loves paper, and loves a man-dog who loves paper...

might have been a whole different matter had it been a knitting magazine (moms get upset about stuff like that) but then again it would probably have been your mom's fault for leaving it around so...Cooper is not at fault for the destruction/happenings of anything left in his chair...

your friends, wilbur & charlotte :)

Oy! Thankfully it wasn't knitting! (Especially not with needles in it).

Poor Cooper...he's clearly searching for his artistic outlet. you could let him track through different finger paints, then over white paper and have him "paint" you a series of pictures to sell on Etsy. Elephant paintings fetch quite a lot these days.

Hee, hee! Reminds me of my budgie! He'll fly down to sit at my feet when I'm knitting, just so he can grab the snippets of yarn and shake them around like he's killing snakes. "I'll save you, Mama!"
