The Piggy

My little brother Ziggy is really super cute (but not as cute as me, obviously). But, he is a really good Siberian and is horrible at cooperating with Mom for pictures. He can actually *hear* a picture coming, everypuppy! Mom was thrilled when she caught him snoozing during an episode of Law and Order the other day, and she snapped this pic on her phone:


She wishes that it wasn't so far away, but what can you do?

Here are some other recent attempts that Mom has made to try and catch the piggy on camera:


That is Mom's big preggo belly in the forefront. The Zigster wanted to give her kisses, but he did NOT want to cooperate for the camera.

Here, the piggy pretended to hear things off in the distance every time Mom tried to snap a pic.
Sometimes he lets her slip one in...but as you can see, he is never very amused.

I, of course, like to remind him that he was once a really stupid little puppy and cooperated with Mom for EVERYTHING:



Mom read on the Army of Four's blog this week that everypuppy is in line for baths this week...though the redheads have not yet suffered the injustice. I love baths (and anything having to do with water!)...but the Piggy has that nickname for a reason. He is a dirty puppy and HATES water...and HATES being clean. He says it is SO GROSS to be clean! He "Ah-ROO"s his disappointment at every chance he gets! He better hope that the biped pup comes soon, because otherwise, I see a bath in the very near future!

Woo,
Marls

Baths are evil. Mom keeps mentioning the dreaded word but so far Dad has held her off. I don't know how much longer he'll be able to do that - Woo!

Way to work the photo shoot and resist baths, Ziggy! But Marley ... I understand mugging for the camera (I mean, Zimmie LOVES to, so I do get that!) but BATHS?!!? Really!?!? Are you related to Dave or something?
Tail wags,
Storms
PS: Mom's looking at Saturday for the redheads' baths. They're praying for rain!

ooohh awesome avoidance tactics, i'm very impressed!

Mum got all mushy at the mention and sight of a big pregnant belly... I have told her VERY FIRMLY that there will be no big pregnant bellys in this house.. two beans are quite enough!

Spike your Moms juice with the Raspberry Leaf.. the baby biped will be here in no time and trust me.. bathing you two will be the LAST thing on their mainds then BOL!

love and tailwags,

Ben xxxx

Marley, great post - Ziggie does a great job posing (not) for pics. And we don't blame him at all for not wanting a bath. The bath usually comes with another "b" word - brush - and that is just about as bad as the bath.

Wooing our heads off for the biped to arrive soon.

Woos, the OP Pack

But doesn't he want to be very clean and looking his best for the biped puppy?

Marley- you look so peaceful while you are sleeping. :)

Ziggy- too bad we can't see your lovable face...but a husky has to do what he/she will do, huh. :)
