Manic Monday: Guest Post: R.I.P.

Hi, I'm Mini. The Big Person said I could post today 'cause she couldn't come up with nuthin fer Manic Monday. She says lots of cats an dogs have their own blogs, but that just sounds like too much work. It would interfere with my naps, I think. I'm a Dachshund. I'm supposed to be a miny-ate-yure but Mrs. Big said I'm a little on the big side myself. Must run in the family. No worries. I still have my girlish figure. I'm cuter than cute.

I'm here to talk to you people about a serious issue called R.I.P. That stands for Rolling In Poop. I'm here to tell you people to lighten up about the whole smell thing. You people have no nose fer anything good. I just don't get it. You couldn't smell your way out of a box if there was a raw steak outside the flappy things. Still, the minute anything starts to smell interesting you go and ruin it by washing it. I'm telling you the cure for this problem now. It is the whole purpose of the Manic Monday Word.

You go and find some nice poop. Any poop will do in a pinch, but I really like horse poop. It has a sweet hay-based aroma underneath notes of definite poopiness. You folks tend to be a bit big so yer gonna need quite a bit of it. Just lay down in it and rub it in good all over. Maybe if you had a nice aroma like that you wouldn't be so keen on washing us canine critters every time we got to smelling just the way we like. R.I.P. yourself. You'll like it way better than that stinky soap. Trust me.

Loved this, I could feel the smile growing on my face and then the laughter burst through! I had dogs for 30+ years. I know the phenomenon, I just don't get it. I have cats now, and my neighbors dog likes to come over and steal the poop right out of the litter box.

Note to self: no doggie kisses from Tank.

Anthony: Why not?

Willthink4wine: I like cats but I bark and bark at them and they never come play. I don't know why not.

Mo: Mrs. Big will be jealous.

Teach: I haven't been... Mrs. Big keeps a close eye on me. I was persuading in my post, but she still says no.

Sarge: Why?

Matt-man: Mrs. Big says that's a huge compliment. Thank you.

Julie: I hope you had a great Monday.

Let's see...I guess there is horse poop left over from the Central Park carraige rides. I'll head right up there and will be R.I.P. soon!

LOL! Great post for a Monday. :) My Lab feels the same way, BTW. Just when Clarence starts smelling the way he likes it, he gets a bath. He likes squirrel poop best. So nutty!!!
