Ridley is strenuously protesting the lack of fire, he keeps lying down by the fireplace, crying, looking at me, looking at @MatGB, crying some more. Mat keeps pretending he doesn't know what Ridley wants and taking him outside. Who will win this war of attrition?
I did some #DIY today and made a sniffer carpet (see alt-text for explanation), in an attempt to keep the dog busy while it's still winter outside Bottom line: he found the treats and ignored the regular dog food... #mastodogs#dogsofpixelfed
They tell you before you get one that sighthounds are "really lazy," but I don't think you really grok it till you have one (or more) in the family. Like "they sleep 16-18 hours a day" is a fact that doesn't prepare you for the reality. "They really like blankets" actually means an exponential increase in the numbers of duvets and therefore duvet covers that need washing in the house.
This post brought to you by Ridley once more refusing to get out of bed, and clutching my legs so I can't get out of bed either.
Okay, now, full disclaimer. I, for some reason, thought I didn't need to bring my camera to the cabin. Why? Because I'm some sort of genius, I don't know. So let's say that the photoshoot with a phone was an adventure. Most photos came out silly so... Sigh... Let's go
this lil goober goes "honk mimimimi" right next to my bed all night and i wouldn't trade him for the world :blobhaj_melt: :shiba_love: :patrick_cozy: :lots_of_love:

Salut Mastodon ! Je refais mon #introduction pour l’épingler :
Je suis Nepsie, graphiste, illustratrice, je vis dans une maison troglodytique (que j’ai rénové aux côté de mon époux @vilain !) avec notre meute de chiens et de lapins. Je fais un peu de tournage sur bois également et j’aime bien cuisiner ! Attends toi à des photos de tout ça !
Tu peux retrouver mon site ici : https://Nepsie.fr si tu veux. #graphicdesign#illustration#woodworking#MastoBunnies#mastodogs
Mein Hund hat gerade mit einem gezielten Biss in eine Fantaflasche meinen ganzen Flur geflutet. Zuerst fand er die zischende Fontaine etwas beängstigend, bis er gemerkt hat, dass er das Zeug echt lecker findet... 😋🫣🐶 #dogsofmastodon#mastodogs#hundeliebe
Starting a custom paint by numbers project. It’s a photo of our dog Earl and me, that my wife got for me for my birthday. It’s so cool. And it’s gonna take forever.
TFW you have a particularly smart dog who is good at picking up on words, and have to refer to things by euphemism when planning so as to not cause unreasonable excitement.
If you mention, for example "afternoon walk" he will leap for the front door, so we have to discuss "who is going to perform the perambulation which occurs post lunch?"; similarly if there is a plan to eat sausages they must be referred to as tubular porcine products, treats are things which are unusually pleasant to consume, and cheese is solidified dairy product.
One always uses the actual word at the requisite time, of course.
