Another photo, really? (2009)

Frito is simply trying to rest is recently-groomed poochiness, but someone-who-shall-remain-nameless just won't put down the camera.

But I know there is much love hidden under a thin layer of disdain and resignation ;-)

Gimme My Boney (2007)

Frito liked his orange boney.  We had about a dozen of them at one time, but eventually they all "died".  Frito would break the squeakers and tear the orange fabric.

You can maybe see this one has a repaired hole in it.  Carol actually ordered replacement squeakers and performed some surgery on the salvageable bonies.

You can see that Frito isn't going to let go until he gets his boney.

He chose wisely

Yes, he chose the rawhide boney.

Frito could work on one of those for a long time.

That's mine!

A little boney tug-o-war.

Or maybe a little game of keep-away, that Frito won.

Such a player.

Play boney, anyone?

Someone's ready to play some "boney".

It could be a mini tug-o-war, or perhaps a little fetch.

It also seems Frito must have recently been in the doctor's office for a blood draw according to his left paw fur being shaved.

Guess that didn't pose too much difficulty for him.

Looks like a calssic

Awwww. Look what I found.

It's my boney, and I'm using it as a chin rest. And it reminds me of a couple classic F-a-D photos.

Perhaps you would like to reminisce with these:


Check out the similarities. Only this one was from 2007 -- 5 years ago!


And sort of reminds me of this classic classic from 2003 (almost 10 years ago). Wow.

Such a young pup.

Outdoor boney

Working hard on my boney.

This must be from last year, when it was warm outside.

I'm looking forward to that once again, believe me!

Finishing up my boney bit

Hey, just like you guys scarfing down Xmas dinner, here I am working extra hard to finish off a boney bit. Yummmmm!

Sittin' on the sofa back (2005)

See, here I am on the back of the sofa, looking out our large picture windows at the back yard (and all the critters that visit).


Woah, gotta grab that boney and use it as a chin rest so it doesn't fall (unless, of course, I want to make Mommy or Alpha pick it up.) Hey Alpha? Wanna fetch? (hee, hee)

Mommy's busy

Mommy's working and she won't play with me right now.


Ain't that a pisser ;-)


Oh wait -- I hear her. It's either play time or food time. Either way, I'm good now!

Backlit

And after the bath, and rollin', and some kibblin' ...

It's time to finish drying off in the sun, and rest my chin on my boney.

And of course, for Alpha to take yet another photo (hee, hee).

Protective

I'm getting rather protective of my boney. Because this is my last boney. What happened to all the others you ask?


They are all on the "injured reserved list". Reserved until Mom can perform squeaker surgery on them.

Come on Mom, better get to it before we have a boney crisis on our hands (hee, hee).

Gettin' too friendly

Oops. Perhaps I'm getting just a little too friendly.

'Scuse me while I back out of this predicament (hee, hee).

Stare-down

Woah! Alpha takes this game a little too seriously, methinks ;-)


Check it out -- he's dangling me (well, OK, my feet are still on the ground ;-)


But hey, this is my boney, and I'm not gonna let go!


So ... gimme, gimme, gimme! I will prevail ... I always do (hee, hee)

Nosie rest

Hi there. Alpha's getting the camera just a little close, donchathink?

After all, I'm just trying to rest here -- resting my nosie in particular.

I'm gonna drop it ...

... and you are going to pick it up!

I like having this kind of power over you. Admit it. You will pick it up. Everytime.

Hee-hee.

My pearly whites

Check them out. I should be in movies, don't you think? I am such a good actor, and I have such a beautiful set of choppers. Look at me being so very vicious! Grrrrrrrrrrrr! Gimme that boney!

Let me have it!

Come on Greg -- let me have my boney!

Greg is a good player. I count on him to be there when I need some attention.

But sometimes he's too good. He grabs on, and won't let me have it!

Come on Greg. Now I want you to give it to me!

Sanctuary

This is my "sanctuary". It's the place I go when I'm done playing, and I don't want anyone to razz me.

Sometimes I like it when Alpha chases me around the house trying to steal my boney. But then sometimes, I just need to call a "time-out", and I do that by going to my sanctuary -- my bed in the kitchen.

Of course, usually, I prefer to play. Just depends on the mood I'm in.

Here I am playing a little with my boney, in case you have been waiting for a movie. And yes, this is from a while ago, when I was a bit shaggier ;-)

Don't even think about it

Really. Don't even think about taking my boney.


It's mine, all mine, and you can't have it.


You really didn't think I was going to let you have it, didya?

And I know you don't really mind, because I am just SO cute!
