Some dogs

Some dogs star in movies, have their own business cards, and bring home the baco-strips.



Some dogs smoke too much pot



and never graduate from junior college.



Some dogs beg to differ with Freud



There are such things as accidents. They happen all the time.

I usually respond with an urbane, Casablanca grin, but for whatever reason your "pot line" for the boxer (Alfred, is it?) really cracked me up loud. Absolutely perfect match of words to photo, tho' I'd never have spotted it myself.

And the Freud line applied to pooches? I have zero trouble accepting that. Passive aggression? Too strong? Passive assertiveness? Or is there nothing passive about it? Dog graffiti?

No Banjo, the stoner is Phoebe; the tinkler is Albert.

Susan C said...

Those studio-trained dogs think they're all that and a bag of doggie treats.

I'll take stoner Phoebe and tinkler Albert (and slutty Betty) any day.

Cafe Observer said...

And, then there are the others, Some Girls, as told by the Rolling Stones.

Petrea said...

Oowooooooo! Will you look how sessy Phoebe is? She's hot. She could be a star if she wanted to.

And Albert the Tinkler. Look at that sweet face. As Virginia would say, I love me some Albert.

Paula said...

Phoebe is prolly a really good Old Lady to Albert, he should be happy to have such a mellow babe like her. And don't worry about the JuCo thing, she's gonna re-enroll - as soon as she finds a way out of that chair.

Virginia said...

I do LOVE ME SOME ALBERT, but ......I didn't know there were some incontinence issues. And the Phoebster is a ho? I mean a Stoned Ho. Who knew? Well we'll chat about this privately . Maybe some rehab or something.

Good lord, who's besmirching Phoebe's good name. She may have a secret stash somewhere, and she may have repeated music appreciation at LACC fourteen times, but don't assume.

Mister Earl said...

LOL!!

Dogs are the best!

Why not try modeling? The boxer's got the legs for it.

Virginia said...

Pardon, me while I wipe off my monitor!!!

Please extend my sincere apologies to the Phoebster. Actaully she does resemble a starlet laid up there on her purple cushion in her fancy chair! :)

Love the remorse on Albert the Incontinent's face.

Yep, canines on cannabis is the only topic that could have topped your previous post.

When I looked into renting a studio sheep for Mr V's installation "Dolly: Multiplied and Extended" the going rate was 275 a day...more for a black sheep. Thats a lot of lamb chops

Brenda's Arizona said...

I'll trade you Toby the Tooter for Phoebe the Stoner. That way you will have two dogs with irresistible faces and irrefutable rears.

Canine cannabis? You think there is a market? Phoebe is obviously the poster child for the campaign.

No champs tonight and it’s only one thing to say:

Btw: Have you seen the trousers?

TheChieftess said...

Our Daisy would love your Phoebe...they're on the same energy level!!!!

altadenahiker said...

Albert the Incontinent -- I like it.

Your photo is exceptional today, K.

PA, I have a vision of constructing a sheep out of grocery store parts.

Brenda, I don't need a matched set. But Chieftess, I have a matching chair for Daisy.

Laurie said...

Albert has his soulmate in my Molly.

Shell Sherree said...

I just snorted with laughter. Fortunately, I stopped short of following Albert's lead.

Virginia said...

Shell,
Albert and I have a lot in common.

Mister Earl said...

And we all have a lot in common with that frozen fountain in B'ham...

Carolynn said...

I've been trying, for years, to figure out a way to get my various and sundry 'dependents' to help pay the bills around here. The scales are weighted far too heavily in their favour, scammy little rats.

Mister Earl said...

Carolynn: In Welcome to the Monkey House, Kurt Vonnegut has a story about how dogs invented everything that humans use, but being smarter than humans, they decided they'd pretend not to know much so humans would take care of them and they could lie back and relax.

Virginia said...

Mr. E, that took a minute but I got, I got it! :)

AmyR said...

That Phoebe?

I like the way she thinks. :)

AmyR said...

Oh and also - we wouldn't you becoming one of those studio dog moms. Yipes!

Desiree said...

And of course there's that Rod Stewart song, "some dogs have all the luck.."

Rob said...

We have a little white terrier - took Little Satan to obedience school. He graduated fifth place out of five dogs. They didn't want him back. We've grown accustomed to pandemonium and chaos. If only I knew pot would help...mellow the dog.

"There are such things as accidents. They happen all the time."

poop happens

Virginia said...

Ahemmm, would you try and break it gently to Albert, but..... ummm.....I'm featuring another Lab on my blog tomorrow. You can explain I'm sure.

Margaret said...

Love them doggies.

Trish said...

ROTFLMAO!

As I have long said, if there is such a thing as reincarnation, I want to come back as a dog in most of my friends houses.

I can lay about and be stoned (or act like it) all day. I can hang out in the house and pee wherever I want and pretend "I forgot" again. Or I can run around in frilly tutus and be all slutty, and no one seems to mind.

Tho, if I keep giggling like this at your blog, I'm going to follow in Albert's tinkling ways and people WILL look at me like I'm a stoner like Phoebe...but I draw the line at running around like Susan's Betty...I think my slutty days are over...;-)

wv:fictionism...this was all made up

Dogs get away with moidah, don't they.
