The haz is strong in this one...

Auggie has yet to learn the subtleties of "I can haz"...

I've had to relocate to higher ground as this little monster almost dumped my lunch.

Don't let those sweet eyes fool you. Contained within this six pound beastie is the heart of a DireWolf.

The waters always greener

 Dogservation:

Since having large canines historically, Boxers and Huskies, we have an assortment of larger food/water bowls, maybe 12" diameter x 5" deep.

With Auggie the new Corgi, I've had one of these large bowls topped with fresh water and at every drink, he stops short of actually stepping into the bowl to drink 'across the pond'...literally drinking as far across the bowl as he can.

And then he goes off to antagonize a cat.

That Mouth Feel

Dogservation:

Holy sh!t. I'd completely forgotten this stage of needle teeth and young canine   placing literally EVERYTHING in his mouth to taste/test.

Food? No, cat.

Food? No, my nose.

Food? No, my sporran.

Food? No, yes. Yes that's actually food! That's awesome.

Food? No, shoe.

Food? No, cat again. Sharp bastard.

Truffles

Dogservation:

I *think* Auggie might be a truffle hunter.

Amendment: He's been digging hither and thither most earnestly. I have to think he's onto something.

I have no way of knowing as truffles are extremely rare as far as I know in my high desert but by gods he's digging in earnest and I have seen some impressive mushroom caps blooming in spring and early summer in the shade in my yard.

Cat Poop

Dogservation:

Spend $79 on 26# of dog füd.

Dog is content eating cat poop dug up in the garden.
