What on earth is my sister doing? I wanted to be the queen of crazy poses, but today she did this:
And I may be jolly, but I don’t think I could get into that position. Here’s how you’re supposed to lay down (unless of course you’re chillin’ to chopin):
Can someone please tell my silly sister Zuzu that? Are dogs’ bodies supposed to be able to twist like that??
And guess what? She’s not really bugging me anymore. Do you think she’s trying to lull me into thinking she wants to be my friend? I am still cautious around her – but now I’m keeping my tail at full mast even when she’s trying to give me kisses. I am beginning to think that it’s nice to have another canine in the house – anything that goes wrong is always blamed on her and I am the angel! AND – when my mom is trying to teach her something we BOTH get treats! And I get one whether or not Zuzu does what my mom wants. A pretty sweet deal, all in all. Mom keeps calling me the big dog… which is pretty funny since Zuzu is now taller than I am. But I think I still outweigh her. 🙂 It’s all those treats!
You need some kind of warning about that pose of Zuzu’s. Like, “DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME.”
That’s some contortionist you have for a sister, Holly.
And you’re wise to be cautious, even though you get to enjoy the extra treats. You never know when the newbies will try to take over the kingdom. 🙂
wow, a pretzel girl…sounds like she might be ‘coming around’ to your way of thinkin’.. make sure she remembers that you are still the queen bee!!

Silly ZuZu is just practicing her Doga, but that is one serious Down Dog! Namaste.
Okay J. Holly –
There’s your proof she doesn’t belong to the normal canine race!
I’m getting a dossier on ‘you know who that rhymes with Zu’. This is a job for the Anti Monkeybutt Force!
I’m afraid if we don’t act fast, she’s going to turn you into Gumpy!
I’ll save you Holly!

Ouch- she must be one of those gummy dogs….
Keep your guard up- don’t be lulled, she might have been waiting until she was bigger than you to unleash her plan for household domination.
But if mom is calling you the big dog then she is still respecting your position.

I enjoyed that post very much! Had me chucklin’.

Heck, I used to do that all the time, but I drank alot back then!
Someone once said, keep your friends close and your new little sister even closer.
Be careful and keep scoring the treats!

ooohhh… cool pose. Is someone keeping track of these new Doga positions? We could publish a book !
We would definitely need to have a warning in the front, though – something about only being attempted under the tutelage of an expert instructor or something….. or when on sufficient doses of Tramadol (I mean, really, you think you’re capable of ANYTHING on that stuff !!)

First off Holly – I meant to “GUMBY” not “Gumpy”.
If your mom comes home with this dog toy on your ampuversary, you are done in for! She and ‘you know who that rhymes with Zu’ are in cahoots!

I got your back Holly
It looks to me like Zuzu has been hanging out with Catie’s mom and doing yoga – or is it “doga?” You really have some catching up to do to top Zu, Jolly Holly!
OMD! I can’t believe I missed this one! I had to do a double take when I saw the picture of your contortionist sister! First you in the chair snoozin to Chopin and now your sister twisting to Chopin. LOL!! It definitely runs (whatever you wanna call all these pretzel, gumby, doga downward dog up moves) in the family :)!
